Creation of sustainable phytotechnology for improving the environment in Central Black soil region Russia

The changes occurring in the biosphere as a result of increased anthropogenic impact have led to a breach of environmental degradation and human environment. This has led to the need for new active phytotechnology for improving the environment. And here on the foreground are going plants and, above all, their ability to make healthy air environment with phytoncides. Currently, the new habitat-forming technology successfully developed in All-Russian Research Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants.

Experiments on creation medicinal lawn with using of grasses and aromatic plants have shown the greatest number of microorganisms in the air above the asphalt playgrounds observed when children play there, the smallest - over forb lawn. Therapeutic lawn with peppermint in the sun before cutting reduced the pathogens to 36-42 %, after cutting by 59-68 %. In the penumbra, respectively, at 26-30 and 40-54 %. Phytoncidic activity of plants in the alpinebed in the morning improved the composition of the air to 30-32%, on the evening to 41 %.

All this research says that for phytotechnology for improving the environment in central Russia may be recommended by plants such as Pseudotsuga Menziesii (Mirb.) Franco, Juniperus virginiana L., Acer pseudoplatanus L., Quercus rubra L., Ptelea trifoliata L., Corylus colurna L.
