Abstract

In this paper сoupling phytoremediation and biofuel production by using Sea buckthornis given. Sea buckthorn brings many environmental benefits, including soil and water conservation, desertification control, land reclamation, erosion and water loss control, and the establishment of wild life habitats especially in fragile ecosystem due to its extensive root system coupled with efficient nitrogen fixation. Sea buckthorn has proved to be a popular green energy plant because of its quality biomass. It is a good source of firewood. The usage of Sea buckthorn oil is an effective biodiesel over other bio diesels formed from other vegetable oils.
