Title

PHYTOREMEDIATION OF SEWAGE WASTE WATER THROUGH THE APPLICATION OF DIFFERENT FLOATING AQUATIC PLANTS

Abstract

Phytoremediation, a land based aquatic macrophyte sustainable strategy for environmental decontamination, has been gaining much importance. The aquatic plants with their sophisticated metabolic and sequestration detoxification mechanisms have the ability to accumulate heavy metals from soil and water. Constructed wetlands, reed beds and floating plant systems have been common for the treatment of wastewaters for many years. Remediation of soils and sludges, using higher plants, is mostly conceived as an in-situ biological technique Heavy-metal pollution is considered a leading source of environmental contamination. Heavy-metal pollution in ground water poses a serious threat to human health and the aquatic ecosystem. Conventional treatment technologies to remove the pollutants from wastewater are usually costly, time-consuming, environmentally destructive, and mostly inefficient. Phytoremediation is a cost effective green emerging technology with long-lasting applicability. The selection of plant species is the most significant aspect for successful phytoremediation. Aquatic plants hold steep efficiency for the removal of organic and inorganic pollutants. Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes) and Duck weed (Lemna minor) along with some other aquatic plants are prominent metal accumulator plants for the remediation of heavy-metal polluted water. The phytoremediation potential of the aquatic plant can be further enhanced by the application of innovative approaches in phytoremediation. A summarizing review regarding the use of aquatic plants in phytoremediation is gathered in order to present the broad applicability of phytoremediation.
