Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Paulownia tomentosa selectively accumulated potentially toxic elements such as lead, zinc and copper.
- Observation Contaminants were primarily retained in the roots of Paulownia tomentosa.
- Intervention effect Proline levels increased in Paulownia tomentosa under elevated landfill leachate exposure.
- Intervention effect Phenol and flavonoid content decreased in Paulownia tomentosa under elevated landfill leachate exposure.
- Intervention effect Paulownia tomentosa reduced 4- and 5-ring PAH concentrations, particularly at moderate leachate levels.
- Association Overall remediation effectiveness of Paulownia tomentosa was limited compared with phytoremediation grasses.
- Recommendation The authors recommend optimizing leachate concentrations for Paulownia remediation of landfill soils.
