Agromining anyone?

Next to a rather vigorous looking Alyssum murale (Odontarrhena chalcidica) in Albania. This is the most productive ‘metal crop’ species used in nickel agromining in the Mediterranean region. Capable of producing in excess of 250 kg of nickel metal per hectare per year.

A new way to recycle metals ? #agromining ( #phytomining ) #soil #pollution #wilddump #disgusting

#agromining terimini daha önce duymamıştım. Terimin Google aramaları çok geriye gitmiyor ama yayınlar ve kitaplar birikmeye başlamış. Kenarda bulunsun. Keşke Türkiye'de bu alanda araştırma yapanlar çıksa 🧐🔬

Together with Professor Jean Louis Morel in a nickel agromining field in Albania. Professor Morel originated the term ‘agromining’ to denote the entire chain of agronomic processes for the production of metals of economic value from the cultivation of hyperaccumulator plants.

Plants can do some pretty amazing things: make the oxygen we breath, create homes for us, slow flooding... and suck metals from the soil (agromining)! Incredible!

Des plantes qui fournissent du métal
Grâce à la lecture d’Epsiloon (Epsiloon) , j’ai découvert « l’agromining » qui permet de cultiver des plantes pour obtenir du métal : or, nickel, cobalt par exemple. La suite sur blog.aquaelis.fr/2021/11/03/des…

Keluli tahan karat seperti aloy ada banyak kegunaan dan ia diperbuat dari nikel. Bayangkan, ia menyerap logam berat dari tanah, memberi oksigen dan memberi pulangan dengan menuai nikel dari pokok. Oh policymaker, agromining is the future. Invest in it laaah...

Element Cup A last minute #TeamNickel fact.
People are researching the ways to extract Ni from soils using hyperaccumulators... And it works!!! It's the #phytomining or #agromining !!!

🌱FARMING FOR METAL⛏️

Australian native plants have been discovered in QLD's Cloncurry, that can absorb enough zinc and nickel to harvest!

The study by UQ Science is looking into the viability of 'agromining' in Australia.

Saintis dari Uni Queensland siap buat ladang tanaman hyperakumulator di kampung pahu untuk menuai logam nikel dari tumbuhan ini. Difahamkan untuk satu pokok boleh mencecah ribuan ringgit. Ini dipanggil Agromining. Laju jak saintis barat ni.

Viola rupestris (a relative of the species below, only found at a few sites in the UK) can hyperaccumulate Zn, Cd and Pb which could make it useful in cleaning polluted soils as well as agromining!

La chercheuse Claude Grison est finaliste du prix de l’inventeur européen 2022. Notre journaliste Jean-Baptiste Veyrieras l’avait rencontrée pour son article dans Epsiloon #4 sur l’agromining: des plantes qui extraient or, nickel, cobalt des sols pollués. Avec déjà des résultats!
