“…Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) possesses a well-developed fibrous root system and large biomass and has been successfully used in wastewater treatment systems to improve water quality. Removal rates by the plant in hydroponic solution for Cd, and Zn was 50-90 % for both metals [142] while for Ni removal was 68 % in field experiment ( [150]) and 19.84 % in hydroponics after 10 d exposure to 15 mg/L of Ni [177]. Strong removal was also observed for Cd removal by water hyacinth conducted in a pot by Wang et.…”

“…Furthermore, the authors performed a largescale experiment using 100 L of water from SCM and the same removal efficiency (99.5 %) was achieved. More recently, [150] studied the uptake of Cd, Cr, Pb, and Zn by four aquatic plants including umbrella palm (Cyperus alternifolius), duckweed (Lemna minor), water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), and canna (Canna × generalis) in different environments i.e., Gohar Rood river, Zarjoob river, Eynak lagoon, Anzali lagoon, and control solution.…”

Heavy metals and organic pollutants are ubiquitous environmental pollutants affecting the quality of soil, water and air. Over the past 5 decades, many strategies have been developed for the remediation of polluted water. Strategies involving aquatic plant use are preferable to conventional methods. In this study, an attempt was made to provide a brief review on recent progresses in research and practical applications of phytoremediation for water resources with the following objectives: (1) to discuss the toxicity of toxic chemicals pollution in water to plant, animals and human health (2) to summarise the physicochemical factors affecting removal of toxic chemicals such as heavy metals and organic contaminants in aqueous solutions by aquatic plants; (3) to summarise and compare the removal rates of heavy metals and organic contaminants in aqueous solutions by diverse aquatic plants; and (4) to summarise chemometric models for testing aquatic plant performance. More than 20 aquatic plants specie have been used extensively while duckweed (L. minor), water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), water lettuce (P. stratiotes) are the most common. Overall, chemometrics for performance assessment reported include: Growth rate (GR), Growth rate inhibition (% Inhibition), Metal uptake (MU), translocation/transfer factor (TF), bioconcentration factor (BCF), Percent metal uptake (% MU), Removal capacity (RC) and Tolerance index (TI) while absorption rate have been studied using the sorption kinetics and isotherms models such as pseudo-first-order (PFO), pseudo-second-order (PSO), Freundlich, Langmuir and Temkin. Using modeling and interpretation of adsorption isotherms for performance assessment is particularly good and increases level of accuracy obtained from adsorption processes of contaminant on plant. Conclusion was drawn by highlighting the gap in knowledge and suggesting key future areas of research for scientists and policymakers.

“…These water plants covered more than 50% of the impoundment at the end of the exposure period. The water hyacinth can accumulate high levels of metals from solutions such as Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn [44,45] and the PGEs Pt, Pd, Os, Ru, Ir, and Rh [42]. When considering the biomass of the water hyacinth in the dam, the plants likely had reduced the metal concentrations in the water.…”

There is increasing evidence that platinum group elements (PGE) are pollutants of emerging concern worldwide. Limited information exists on levels, particularly in regions where PGEs are mined. A passive sampling device (i.e., the artificial mussel (AM)) and transplanted indicator organisms (i.e., the freshwater clam Corbicula fluminalis africana) were deployed along a PGE mining gradient in the Hex River, South Africa, and concentrations of As, Cd, Co, Cr, Ni, Pb, Pt, V, and Zn were determined after six weeks of exposure. Results showed differential uptake patterns for Pt, Cr, and Ni between the AMs and clams indicating availability differences. For monitoring purposes, a combination of AMs and indicator organisms provides a more holistic assessment of element exposure in aquatic environments.
