WORKSHOP: RECOVERING CONTAMINATED SOILS THROUGH PHYTOMANAGEMENT IN SOUTHWEST EUROPE
Soil contamination is a widespread problem in Europe with adverse consequences for biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and human health. Phy2SUDOE project promotes a wider use of phytomanagement strategies by managers and owners of contaminated lands. Phytomanagement is a multi-objective management strategy, based on the use of plants (trees, shrubs, herbaceous) to control contamination-induced risks in contaminated sites, while generating products (e.g., wood, resin, essential oils, bioenergy, ecocatalysts) from harvested biomass and enhancing the supply of ecosystem services (e.g., carbon sequestration, erosion control, creation of habitats).
Phy2SUDOE project also aims to implement strategies for the conservation of endemic biodiversity in contaminated sites due to its intrinsic and utilitarian value (e.g., biotechnological applications).
