The objective of this study was to investigate the reduction of phosphorus from rice mill
wastewater by using free floating aquatic plants. Four free floating aquatic plants were used …

Copper contamination of industrial waste streams is increasingly common with copper used
in an array of industrial processes. Phytoremediation of copper-contaminated water with …

Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) pollution occurs widely in soils due to various
anthropogenic activities. Lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) coexist in soil frequently, threatening …

We conducted this study to assess the efficiency of the combination of three floating
macrophytes (Eichhornia crassipes (water hyacinth), Pistia stratiotes L.(water lettuce), and …

In 2017, 400 million people in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) were still using unimproved
drinking water sources, 80 million of whom relied on untreated surface water. Urban areas …

Fast-paced global industrialization due to population growth poses negative water
implications, such as pollution by heavy metals. Phytoremediation is deemed as an efficient …

The potential to utilise the free-floating macrophyte Pistia stratiotes L. to survey
contamination of the Al-Sero Drain in the South Nile Delta, Egypt, by eight potentially toxic …

Aim i) is there a difference in the level of contamination in the different parts of the basin in
the water, sediment and aquatic macrophytes compartments? and ii) do the three …

The phytoremediation potential of Myriophyllum spicatum L. has been well documented for
bulk-sized heavy metals, including zinc (Zn). However, there is no information on the …

Heavy metals, especially Pb (lead), are generally toxic to living things. Pb can contaminate
organisms in the water through the food chain. The purpose of this study is to enhance water …
