Purifying mining wastewater with plant-associated microbes

Kaisa Lehosmaa studies the potential of Arctic microbes and plants to purify industrial wastewater. Such method can help to reduce environmental contamination caused by the mining industry. In addition to mining, nitrogen and heavy metal loads to waterbodies come from wastewater treatment plants, stormwater, agriculture, and peat production. The suitable plant-associated microbes for bioremediation are … Continue reading Purifying mining wastewater with plant-associated microbes
