Rising environmental constraints on peat extraction, plus the non-renewable nature and high impacts of pumice and perlite, drive demand for peat-free alternatives. Dredged sediments are often treated as waste, yet reuse is increasingly supported. This study tests whether phytoremediated sediments can be optimized for ornamental plant cultivation while minimizing environmental impact via life cycle analysis.","cbCaigoYsOP3vv3S","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigoYsOP3vv3S","pdf",754538,3,1,"English","en","# Introduction\n## Peat-based growing media and environmental pressure\n## Limitations of prior peat-reduction materials\n## Dredged sediments as a reuse opportunity\n## Study hypothesis and experimental approach\n## Life cycle analysis for environmental impact","[{\"question\":\"Why is the search for peat-free growing media important in ornamental plant production?\",\"answer\":\"Peat extraction conflicts with EU environmental directives, while key peat-based amendments like pumice and perlite are non-renewable and high-impact.
