EmilyContaminated soils from the 1979 oil spill in Bemidji, Minnesota. <br> <br> Over 45 years later, these soils are still hydrophobic (repel water) resulting in a sparsely vegetated landscape. We're studying how industrial hemp can help remediate these soils. <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/research?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#research</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/minnesota?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#minnesota</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/soil?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#soil</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/contamination?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#contamination</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/hemp?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hemp</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/umn?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#umn</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/oilspill?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oilspill</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/phytoremediation?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#phytoremediation</a>

Asakiyume<p>Camelina, a friendly li'l brassica is a superhero!<br>1. It cleans contaminated soils, slurping up nickel--which can then be harvested (phytomining!) for use<br>2. It improves the soil's fertility<br>3. Its oil can be used in biofuels.</p><p>"We believe that there is currently enough nickel in the barren soil in the U.S. to supply us for 50 years of phytomining,” says [phytoremediation prof] Dhankher. </p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/phytoremediation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>phytoremediation</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/phytomining" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>phytomining</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/GreenTransition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GreenTransition</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/UMass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UMass</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.umass.edu/news/article/scientists-umass-amherst-engineer-plant-based-method-precious-mineral-mining" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">umass.edu/news/article/scienti</span><span class="invisible">sts-umass-amherst-engineer-plant-based-method-precious-mineral-mining</span></a></p>
