Evaluating the Efficiency of Salicornia, Typha, and Juncus Aquatic Plants in Extra Phosphate Phytoremediation from the Aqueous Solutions

Abstract: Background: The phosphorous as one of the agricultural, industrial, and urban pollutants has an important role in the eutrophication phenomenon of the surface waters. Objectives: In this research, the effect of three species of aquatic plants, including Salicornia (Persica), Typha, and Juncus, were investigated and compared with the potential of phosphate uptake. Methods: After preparing the condition and cultivation of plants, they were irrigated by synthetic wastewaters with various phosphate concentrations … Show more

“…Also, Earthworms can remove heavy metals from sewage sludge and prevent entering the environment by absorbing them in their bodies (13) which is a positive environmental advantage on its own. The removal of PCBs by bioremediation is a low-cost and environmentally friendly method (14), in which earthworms can increase the dispersion of bacteria and improve the performance of microorganisms destroying PCBs (8). Our method can be applied for large amounts of contaminated soil in situ (15), which is not possible in other methods.…”
