Abstract
This introductory chapter summarizes the progress of the theoretical and practical aspects of phytoremediation, mainly focusing on phytoremediation actions. Several expansions in the theory and practices of phytoremediation have been achieved around the world mainly in developed countries during the past decade, though phytoremediation is still not popularized as a holistic approach with multiple benefits to remediate environmental pollution. Coordinating, we also attempt to link the gap between the theory and practice of phytoremediation through describing the term “phytomanagement.” The last section of this introductory chapter discusses the topic, sustainability issues of phytoremediation, in detail. In conclusion, economically valuable, unpalatable, and native plant-based phytoremediation is a promising idea to generate an income for phytocompanies, provide revenue to landowners, and for multiple benefits to the environment as well as to reduce the dangers faced by animals. In our opinion, our evidence-based suggestions and specific cases of phytoremediation around the world offer to put phytoremediation into action.
