Phthalates are now the world largest produced and the largest area used synthetic organic compounds, and have been widely applied in plastic products as plasticizers. In recent years, phthalates have been found as a kind of typical environmental endocrine interferon. With the increasing plastic products, especially large application of agricultural film and organic manure, phthalates contamination is increasingly aggregated in farmland soil. Therefore, the remediation of phthalate contaminated soil has gradually been paid broad attention by scholars of both home and abroad. Bioremediation, as a cheap, effective and environment friendly way and other advantages for soil remediation, especially suitable for the remediation of large-area contaminated farmland soil. This paper summarizes the status quo of bioremediation of phthalate contaminated soil at home and abroad from aspects of phytoremediation, microbial remediation, plant-microbe associated bioremediation and animal remediation etc. And discussed the screening and mechanism of highly effective remediation plants, the studies on remediation of practically polluted soil by degradation microbes, and construction of highly effective degradation microbial population and active mechanism and other aspects to prospect the studies in the field, in order to provide the use for references, and expand new train of thought in the remediation study on the phthalate polluted soil. |
