“…Water hyacinth is one of the rapidly-growing macrophytes and is an invasive plant species in various countries and native to South America. It has a lot of potentials to produce large amounts of biomass and has rapid vegetative propagation (Sierra-Carmona et al, 2022). The role of water hyacinth-associated microbes on organic contaminants, pesticides, heavy metals, nutrient uptake and dissolved oxygen content was reported (Luo et al, 2015).…”

A total of twelve endophytic bacteria were isolated from the root of E. crassipes. All these bacterial strains were analyzed for phenol degradation potential. Twelve endophytic bacteria were subjected to polyphenol resistance analysis and all showed phenol tolerance up to 300 ppm. Among the twelve bacterial strains, the strain RD10 was resistant up to 800 ppm, and reduced growth were observed at higher concentrations. The plant growth-promoting properties of endophytic bacterial strains were analyzed. Among the isolated bacterial strain, only five strains produced ACC deaminase. IAA production was detected in seven bacterial isolates, while siderophore production was determined from only five bacterial strains. Among the isolated endophytes, the strain RD10 exhibited ACC deaminase, IAA, and siderophore activity in submerged fermentation. ACC deaminase production of 125.2 ± 4.8 m/ml was shown by strain RD10 and IAA production was 89.7 ± 5.1 μg/ml. Moreover, maximum siderophore production was observed (53.9 ± 4.9% siderophore units) in strain RD3. Catechol 2,3-dioxygenase activity of the bacterial strains was analyzed. Catechol 2,3 dioxygenase activity ranges from 0.03 ± 0.01 U/mg to 35.2 ± 1.1 U/mg. Phenol degradation by the isolated endophytes was studied and the initial phenol concentration was 500 ppm. The strain RD1 degraded 1.2 ± 0.2% phenol and more than 50% phenol degradation was observed in strains RD3, RD4, RD6, RD7, RD9, RD10, and RD11, respectively. The endophytic bacterial strain was Gram-negative, rodshaped and motile. It was non-spore-forming bacteria, capsulated and, showed a positive reaction to oxidase and catalase. In MacConkey agar medium, strain RD10 forms smooth and flat colonies, and the diameter of the colonies ranged from 2 to 3 mm. The colonies have an alligator skin-like appearance on top view and have regular margins. The strain RD10 was streaked on blood agar medium and the strain RD10 produced strong pigmentation on blood agar. Antibiotic sensitivity of strain RD10 against various antibiotics in terms of zone of inhibition was analyzed. The endophytic strain RD10 was sensitive to all selected antibiotics. Based on biochemical characters, pigment analysis and, molecular characterization, the strain was confirmed as P. aeruginosa RD10. In this study, P. aeruginosa RD10 was cultured at 400, 500 and, 600 mg/l phenol concentration for 96 h. Optimum growth was achieved at 500 mg/l concentration and an inhibitory effect was observed at 600 mg/l phenol concentration. The results confirmed that the selected strain can withstand and grow well at 500 mg/l phenol concentration. The strain RD10 was cultured at various incubation temperatures with 500 mg/l phenol concentration. Optimization of environmental factors can lead to maximum degradation of phenol. The results revealed that phenol degradation was influenced by temperature. The highest phenol degradation was achieved at 30 °C in Erlenmeyer flask culture and decreased at high temperatures. P. aeruginosa RD10 could degrade phenol at pH 5.5 (10.2 ± 0.5% removal), at pH 6.0, 15.4 ± 1.1% of the phenol was degraded after incubation for 72 h at 30 °C. Phenol removal (%) declined to 70.4 ± 2.9% at higher initial pH value (9.0).

“…In recent years, the common water hyacinth (Pontederia crassipes) has spread quickly in this section of the river, with the infestation causing not only eco-environmental damage by blocking waterways but also disruption of the aquatic ecosystem equilibrium, including a reduction in biodiversity (Carnaje et al 2018, Das et al 2016, Guragain et al 2011. The salvage of Pontederia crassipes is considered one of the most efficient approaches to removing excess nitrogen and phosphorus from polluted waters (Sierra et al 2022).…”

Owing to its high concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus, the slurry from water hyacinth (Pontederia crassipes) biogas production cannot be discharged directly without further treatment. To achieve the target of water recycling, a new strategy of combining a Carrousel oxidation ditch with a water spinach wetland was developed in this study for the harmless treatment of Pontederia crassipes biogas slurry. First, the water quality characteristics of the biogas slurry were measured. Then, comprehensive tests of the combined slurry treatment system were carried out to verify pollutant removal performance and mechanism. The results showed that the Carrousel oxidation ditch reduced the inlet pollutant load of the subsequent water spinach wetland. The chemical oxygen demand (COD), and ammonium nitrogen (NH 4 + -N), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus (TP) contents of the average effluent from the combined system were less than 50 mg/L, 1.6 mg/L, 6 mg/L, and 0.5 mg/L, respectively, which means that all met urban sewage treatment standard of Level 1 Grade A (GB18918-2002). Gas chromatography -mass spectrometry analysis showed that the combined system had decreased various types of organic pollutants in the biogas slurry exponentially, efficiently removing alkane pollutants, aromatic hydrocarbons, and heterocyclic compounds. Scanning electron microscopy images revealed very large surface area of the water spinach roots in the wetland, which played important roles in enriching the microorganisms and trapping organic matter. Plant absorption, microbial degradation, and filtration were the primary ways in which the water spinach wetland purified the biogas slurry.

“…Proposed studies for the control of harmful aquatic plants, like water Hyacinth (Pontederia crassipes), including possible energy production by combustion or as an alternative fuel source or reinforcing component in the production of bioplastics, represent only weak attempts to tackle their high reproductive capacity, considering its eradication is inevitably a necessity to reduce the environmental impacts it causes, clear evidence does not exist regarding possible benefits behind their utilization [1]. Indeed, only 19% of the research articles about Pontederia crassipes propose it as a potential source of alternative fuel.…”
