Soil pollution, particularly from heavy metals, presents significant challenges for researchers and activists seeking ecologically benign, cost-effective, technically applicable, straightforward approaches to decontamination. The selection of the most suitable method soil cleaning necessitates a comprehensive framework that considers these crucial factors, as an inappropriate choice can lead environmental repercussions, along with wasted time resources. In this study, we aim compare effectiveness different remediation methods metal contamination, focusing specifically on phytoremediation. Furthermore, employ life cycle impact assessment valuable tool estimate calculate effects associated entire methods, encompassing factors such climate change, eutrophication, ozone layer depletion, smoke fog formation, water land consumption, toxic pressure ecosystems human health, well resource depletion. findings demonstrate immense potential phytoremediation promising technology effectively eliminating metals contaminated soils. Moreover, approach proves be efficient, environmentally friendly, offering viable solution addressing pressing global concern pollution in soil. By considering four key steps – Goal Definition Scope, Life Cycle Inventory, Impact Assessment, Interpretation provide analysis implications methods. This research contributes new insights field, guiding researchers, activists, policymakers development sustainable strategies combat preserve environment.
