‘Plant Based Purification’ explores the innovative use of plants for environmental remediation, focusing on phytoremediation as a sustainable solution to pollution. Highlighting the ability of specific plant species to naturally filter air and purify soil, the book emphasizes practical applications, drawing from the NASA Clean Air Study to illustrate how plants can improve indoor air quality by absorbing pollutants like VOCs. This approach offers a cost-effective alternative to conventional pollution control methods, making environmental science and plant biology accessible to a broad audience.
The book begins by establishing the scientific basis of phytoremediation, detailing how plants absorb and metabolize pollutants. Progressing through chapters, it examines the NASA Clean Air Study and profiles various plant species known for their purification capabilities, providing insights into their effectiveness against different pollutants and their growth requirements.
It culminates in practical strategies for implementing plant-based purification in diverse settings, such as homes, offices, and urban areas, emphasizing the importance of plant selection and maintenance for achieving optimal results in both air and soil purification.
