Effects of Grasses on the Remediation of Creosote-Contaminated Surface Soil
A grass phytoremediation field study was initiated in July 1997 at the site of a former railroad tie facility that used creosote for tie preservation. The site is contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). A test matrix consisting of 36 planted (clover, fescue and rye grasses) and...
