- <p>The review article discusses the critical issue of soil pollution caused by open disposal of municipal solid waste, focusing on the contamination by heavy metals. It explores bioremediation and phytoremediation as effective techniques for mitigating heavy metal contamination in soils from dump sites. Bioremediation employs microorganisms to detoxify pollutants, utilizing in-situ and ex-situ methods such as bioventing, biosparging, and bioaugmentation. Phytoremediation leverages plants to remove, stabilize, or degrade contaminants through processes like phytoextraction, phytofiltration, phytostabilization, phytovolatilization, and phytodegradation. The article highlights the advantages of these methods, including cost-effectiveness and environmental friendliness, while addressing limitations such as time requirements and site-specific constraints. It emphasizes the role of microbial diversity, nutrient supplementation, temperature, and pH in enhancing remediation efficiency. The review concludes that integrating advanced biotechnological approaches can improve these eco-friendly, sustainable methods for long-term soil remediation.</p>
