PHYTO presents the concepts of phytoremediation and phytotechnology in one comprehensive guide, illustrating when plants can be considered for the uptake, removal or mitigation of onsite pollutants. Current scientific case studies are covered, highlighting the advantages and limitations of plantbased cleanup. Typical contaminant groups found in the built environment are explained, and plant lists for mitigation of specific contaminants are included where applicable.This is the first book to address the benefits of phytotechnologies from a design point of view, taking complex scientific terms and translating the research into an easytounderstand reference book for those involved in creating planting solutions. Typically, phytotechnology planting techniques are currently employed postsite contamination to help cleanup already contaminated soil by taking advantage of the positive effects that plants can have upon harmful toxins and chemicals. This book presents a new concept to create projective planting designs with preventative phytotechnology abilities, 'phytobuffering' where future pollution may be expected for particular site programs.Filled with tables, photographs and detailed drawings, Kennen and Kirkwood guide the reader through the process of selecting plants for their aesthetic and environmental qualities, combined with their contaminantremoval benefits.
