Hallors and Saline Museum men and citizens for the merits of the brotherhood of the Hallors. In addition, the visitor gets a glimpse into the traditions of this brotherhood, their historic privileges and duties. Salt plants (halophytes) – typical plants growing on salty soils – are to find in the garden of the museum. Starting on August 1, 2010, The Museum of Saline has been maintained and promoted by a non-profit association. The buildings of Saline are now the oldest witnesses of the industrial style architecture in Halle upon Saale. The earliest buildings were erected from 1719 to 1721. The oldest remaining part of
Phytoremediation soluble contaminants downwards, deeper into the site and into the groundwater. Phytodesalination uses halophytes (plants adapted to saline soil) to extract salt from the soil to improve its fertility Breeding programs and genetic engineering are powerful methods for enhancing natural phytoremediation capabilities, or for introducing new capabilities into plants. Genes for phytoremediation may originate from a micro-organism or may be transferred from one plant to another variety better adapted to the environmental conditions at the cleanup site. For example, genes encoding a nitroreductase from a bacterium were inserted into tobacco and showed faster removal of TNT and enhanced resistance to
