Pesticides Xenobiotics in Soil Ecosystem and Their Remediation Approaches

Abstract

Globally, the rapid rise in the human population has increased the crop production, resulting in increased pesticide xenobiotics. Despite the fact that pesticide xenobiotics toxify the soil environment and ecosystem, synthetic pesticides have increased agricultural yields and reduced disease vectors. Pesticide use has increased, resulting in an increase in environmental pollution. Various methods of controlling and eliminating these contaminants have been proposed to address this issue. Pesticide impurity in the climate presents a genuine danger to individuals and other oceanic and earthly life. If not controlled, the pollution can prompt difficult issues for the climate. Some viable and cost-effective alternative approaches are needed to maintain this emission level at a low level. Phytoremediation and microbial remediation are effective methods for removing acaricide scrapings from the atmosphere using plants and organisms. This review gives an overview of different types of xenobiotics, how they get into the environment, and how the remediation of pesticides has progressed. It focuses on simple procedures that can be used in many countries. In addition, we have talked about the benefits and drawbacks of natural remediation methods.

Residue of Pesticides in Fruits, Vegetables, and Their Management in Ethiopia

“…Te uptake of pesticide compounds into plant tissues is referred to as absorption, and this action eliminates the herbicide from the environment and stops it from contaminating the water supply [44]. Once a pesticide is ingested, the majority of it degrades, and when a plant decomposes, pesticide residues may be broken down or may still be there and be released back into the environment [44]. Some pesticides persist in the soil long enough for plants planted in a feld to be exposed to them years later.…”

A Review on Plants and Plant/Microbial Systems in Reducing Exposure

“…Xenobiotics, which include industrial chemicals, insecticides, and herbicides, are substances that do not exist naturally in the environment, these substances can accumulate in the food chain and have detrimental impacts on the health of the soil, there are several microbial species and enzymatic pathways involved in the complex process of xenobiotic breakdown in the rhizosphere (Prasad, S., et al, 2021). Soil pH, moisture content, and temperature are just a few of the variables that might affect how xenobiotics break down in the rhizosphere, the composition of the microbial community in the rhizosphere can also have an impact on how quickly and effectively xenobiotics degrade (Wang, X., et al, 2022).…”

Properties and Possibilities of Using Biochar Composites Made on the Basis of Biomass and Waste Residues Ferryferrohydrosol Sorbent

“…The expansion of modern production technologies, increasing the potential of car transport, has contributed to the release of many inorganic pollutants (including heavy metals) into the environment [ 6 ]. In addition, increased consumption of pharmaceuticals [ 7 ] causes pollutants present in wastewater that contaminate water and soils, which is a global problem that poses a direct threat to the environment [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ].…”
