Description	Increasing population and pollution has reached an alarming situation worldwide. Pollution of water bodies, soil, and agricultural land worldwide is deteriorating environmental and human health. Various physico-chemical techniques, pollution control rules, and safety standards all together are still unable to control the pollution at the desired level. The need of the hour is to move into the future with the adoption of sustainable technologies. This chapter summarises the progress of the sustainable aspects of phytoremediation in pollution control and abatement. Phytoremediation revolves around several approaches developed around the world during the few past decades. These include phytoextraction, phytovolatilisation, phytotransformation, etc. Though phytoremediation is still not commercialised at a large scale, it has obtained appreciation as a holistic approach with multiple benefits in removing environmental contaminates. The use of an economically important and local plant for phytoremediation technology would be a promising approach to generate income sources for the farmers and would help in the progress of technology. This chapter discusses various aspects of phytoremediation and future scenarios. Book Name: Innovative Bio-Based Technologies for Environmental Remediation
