“…Its costeffectiveness and potential to limit the exposure of the polluted substrate to people, animals, and the environment are both facilitated by the fact that phytoremediation is typically carried out in situ [124]. The four types of phytoremediation are phytoextraction, phytofiltration, phytostabilization, and phytovolatilization, depending on the circumstances, the extent of clean-up necessary, the plants used, and the contaminants [127]. Since nutrients found in manure or in compounds come from the portion of feed that is not absorbed by the animals, adjusting the diet may be an effective strategy to influence the amount of manure generated as well as its composition [124].…”

Heavy Metals - Recent Advances

Heavy metals are metallic elements with a high density compared to water that are found in trace amounts in a variety of matrices. Mercury poisoning can cause brain damage, skin damage, and increase risk of cancer development. Mercury-poisoned animals cannot produce meat, liver, or kidneys fit for human consumption. Heavy metals can cause cell dysfunction and toxicity by attaching to protein sites and displacing the original metals from their native binding sites. Reducing input/output ratio of heavy metals in animals should be the main objective of effective solutions. Electro-remediation involves running an electric current through liquid manure to cause metal ions to precipitate on an electrode.
