In this study phytoremediation of wastewater by Moringa and Vetiver was conducted. Various doses of Chrysopogon zizanioides (Vetiver) root powder and Moringa oleifera seed powder were taken for the study. 50mg/litre, 100mg/litre, 150mg/litre concentration were taken, checked and analyzed on various water quality parameters like PH, turbidity, TDS, hardness, alkalinity, acidity, MPN. All parameters were decreased with increased doses of plant extracts except PH. But maximum purification efficiency was shown by Vetiver as it made a drastic decrease in the MPN index, TDS and Hardness. That means Vetiver has more water purification capacity than Moringa.
