Abstract
Phytoremediation is a plant-based technology that is both cost-effective and environmentally beneficial, and it is classified as an in-situ modification method. Using phytoremediation, on the other hand, results in the restoration of the preservation site's biological activity, physical structure, and chemical properties. Heavy metals can be found in a variety of places in the environment. Because most of these compounds are water soluble, they circulate quickly across the environment. Heavy metals and other pollutants in high concentrations can impair the body's physiology and biochemistry, resulting in health problems. This chapter will review the literature available in different data bases on Cannabis sativa for possible remediation of pollutants from different ecosystems.
