Abstract
Phytoremediation is a kind of technology based on the use of plants in removing contaminants, including heavy metals, which is cheap and environmentally compatible. In this research, the ability of Acer velutinum for phytoremediation of zinc element was reviewed. A. velutinum seedlings were prepared, zinc metal concentrations of 0, 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg of soil were added to the pot's soils after calculation and after two time periods of 45 days of the seedlings growth, roots and shoots were separated. The amount of zinc metal concentration was determined in the samples and the data were reviewed. The results showed that the amount of zinc concentration in all the organs was logical. The amount of zinc concentration in the second time period was more than the first time period. Based on the researches, this species can be appropriate for refining zinc metal-polluted soils.
