Phytoremediation is an exciting new approach to the remediation of soils and water contaminated with heavy metals. Perhaps the most promising aspect focuses on plants that accumulate metal ions in leaves and stems which can then be harvested without disturbing soil. Before phytoremediation can achieve its full potential, however, we need to understand the fundamental processes involved. We propose to use x-ray absorption spectroscopy to study metal mobilization, transport and storage as part of an ongoing research program at Rutgers University.

植物修复是一种令人兴奋的新方法， 被重金属污染的土壤和水。 也许最 有希望的方面集中在植物中积累金属离子， 叶和茎，然后可以收获而不破坏土壤。 然而，在植物修复发挥其全部潜力之前，我们 我们需要了解所涉及的基本过程。 我们建议 使用X射线吸收光谱学来研究金属移动， 运输和储存作为正在进行的研究计划的一部分， 罗格斯大学。
