Aromatic Plant-based Phytoremediation: Socio-Economic and Agricultural Sustainability provides knowledge and insights into the phytoremediation capabilities of aromatic crops. This book aims to raise awareness of aromatic crop-based phytoremediation among ecologists, environmental scientists, practitioners, policymakers, and other interested parties. Furthermore, it brings together new and existing knowledge on various aspects of aromatic crop-based phytoremediation, presenting this information in a single source that provides a cutting-edge synthesis of scientific and practical knowledge on polluted site restoration and application that is useful to both practitioners and scientists. Aromatic crop-based phytoremediation provides a solid foundation on which scientific knowledge in the field of aromatic crop-based phytoremediation can grow and expand. This book is a good and instructive text with a format that is easy to grasp and read. It employs a dense literary composition that is rich in depth, clarity, and coverage
- Focuses on anthropogenic land pollution and management through aromatic crops
- Provides basic understanding and a clear picture on how to use aromatic grasses in phytoremediation with a goal toward sustainable development
- Explores the sustainability of aromatic crop cultivation in polluted land in phytoremediation programs

Dr. Dragana Randjelovic works as a Senior Research Associate at Institute for Technology of Nuclear and Other Mineral Raw Materials in Belgrade, Serbia. She holds B.S. and M.S. from the Faculty of Forestry in Landscape Architecture, and a Ph.D. in Multidisciplinary Sciences for Environmental Protection from the University of Belgrade. She is working on the reclamation and remediation of degraded lands using selected plants, with a focus on metal and metalloid transport and accumulation in the soil–plant system. She investigates these processes in a variety of mine wastes and other anthropogenically altered environments, such as ruderal habitats or regions affected by environmental disasters. She also investigates the phytoremediation capabilities of many plant taxa found in degraded regions, including sensitive and endangered, medicinal, invasive, and ruderal plants. She has over 60 international and national research papers on diverse environmental themes to her credit.
