Abstract

Agricultural soils face significant contamination from heavy metals, especially Pb and Cd. Ricinus communis offers potential for efficient phytoextraction of these metals. EDTA can enhance the bioavailability of Pb and Cd for plant uptake. The combined use of EDTA and Ricinus communis magnifies remediation efficiency. Exploring the environmental implications and safety of EDTA-assisted phytoextraction.
