BONUS: Lessons from the Field – Phytoremediation in Action

In this bonus episode, Host Beatrice Bizzaro, Water Stewardship Technology Lead at HPC Italy and the Inogen Alliance Global Water Working Group Leader, sits down with Gabriele Cerutti, Technology Leader Geologist at HPC Italy, to explore a fascinating case study on phytoremediation.

Gabriele highlights the opportunities and challenges of applying phytoremediation in agricultural contexts. He explains how this sustainable approach compares to traditional remediation, the operational challenges faced during implementation, and the long-term benefits for soil conservation, biodiversity, and circularity.
