Abstract

This study attempts to implement the newly emerging phytoremediation methods for surface water and contaminated surface soil mitigation from geographical perspectives. Vicinity of Barjora and Durgapur Industrial complex of West Bengal, India, has been selected as the study area for this case study. Based on the general principles and guidelines of phytoremediation implementation in the field, stated in several works of literature and manuals published by various authorities, this study determines the most suitable sites and plants for implementing phytoremediation in the areas mentioned above. For selecting suitable sites, the weighted overlay method has been used in the GIS environment using four datasets, i.e., Landuse, Proximity to the pollution source, soil productivity, pollution load, of top soil and surface water. The outcome reveals that in the Andal block, suitable site clusters are located close to Tamla Village, Dakshin Khandra Village, and Bhadur. The suitable locations for surface water are along the Damodar River in Balarampur, Damodar Nagar, and Ramprasadpur in Andal Block and Ondal Block.
