Comprehensive review on phytotechnology: Heavy metals removal by diverse aquatic plants species from wastewater
TL;DR: Based on the findings, phytofiltration (rhizofiltration) is the sole method which defined as heavy metals removal from water by aquatic plants, and free-floating plants were more efficient to uptake heavy metals in comparison with submerged and emergent plants.
