Abstract:Eutrophication, which results from the excessive introduction of phosphorus into water bodies, poses a critical ecological challenge, although it is not the exclusive factor driving this phenomenon. The indispensability of phosphate fertilizers for global food production, coupled with the gradual depletion of natural phosphate reserves, underscores the urgency of sustainable phosphorus management. This research investigated the efficacy of two aquatic plant species, Salvinia and Pistia, for phosphate removal f… Show more
