Description :
Municipal solid waste management, like most of other infrastructural services has come under great stress. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to find out the problems and prospects of Municipal solid waste and to study various physicochemical parameters and heavy metals of soil which is collect from Sukali compost and landfill depot, Amravati. Present paper aim to investigate the capacity of Tecomastans to remove contaminant in waste soil polluted by various heavy metals. Quality of waste soil have been investigated with respect to important physicochemical parameters pH, soil colure, texture, temperature, conductivity, chlorides, Na, K, etc. Significantly increase the concentration of chlorophyll a than chlorophyll b in waste soil sample as compared to control. All recorded differences in morphological and chlorophyll content of plants were caused by differences of cumulative environmental conditions with dominant effects of the contamination degree of locations of soil. Heavy metal analysis of initial waste soil, it contained Cu 8.83 mg/g its 88-89 %, Zn 14.490 mg/g its 74-75 %, Cr 4.97 mg/g its 96-97%, Ni 1.20 mg/g its 90-91% and Mn 14.464 mg/g its 72-73% higher than control soil. Concentration of Fe was 10-15% higher in control soil over the waste soil. Tecomastans can extract, stabilize, volatilize and accumulate Cu 40-45 %, Zn 70-72 %, Ni 85-86 %, Cr 85-86 % and Mn 65-66 %. After 2 months of phytoremediation study, using Tecomastans its act as an accumulator, it hyperaccumulate Cr, Ni and Zn
