Potential of Duckweed (Lemna minor) for Removal of Lead from Wastewater by Phytoremediation
This investigation was undertaken to study Pb uptake by small free floating aquatic plant Lemna minor from wastewater polluted by contaminated with heavy metals. Metal accumulation process was affected by various parameters such as different pH, temperature and concentration of Pb solution. Total chlorophyll contents in Lemna minor was adversely affected from increased with increasing Pb concen...
متن کاملPhytoremediation of Cu, Cr and Pb mixtures by Lemna minor.
The present study reports the capacity of the aquatic macrophyte Lemna minor to remediate combinations of Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cr(III) from a simulated natural environment. The effect of these metal mixtures on the growth of L. minor was also investigated using growth rate and biomass inhibition calculations. L. minor was successful in removing Cr and Pb from the water, and it remained an effecti...
متن کاملBiodiesel Production from Azolla filiculoides (Water Fern)
Purpose: To assess the potential of Azolla filiculoides, total body collected from a rice farm in northern Iran as source for biodiesel production. Methods: Solvent extraction using Soxhlet apparatus with chloroform-methanol (2:1 v/v) solvent blend was used to obtain crude oil from freeze-dried the Azolla plant. Acid-catalyzed transesterification was used to convert fatty acids (FA), monoglycer...
متن کاملUptake and toxicity of arsenic, copper, and silicon in Azolla caroliniana and Lemna minor.
Here we report on the analysis of two aquatic plant species, Azolla caroliniana and Lemna minor, with respect to tolerance and uptake of co-occurring arsenic, copper, and silicon for use in engineered wetlands. Plants were cultured in nutrient solution that was amended with arsenic (0 or 20 microM), copper (2 or 78 microM), and silicon (0 or 1.8 mM) either singly or in combination. We hypothesi...
متن کاملNutrient removal efficiency by floating macrophytes; Lemna minor and Azolla pinnata in a constructed wetland
The use of constructed wetlands for purifying pre-treated wastewater is a cost effective technology that has been found to be more appropriate for many developing countries. The technology is also environmentally friendly with the wetlands being habitats for many water birds and other aquatic organisms. This study assessed nutrient removal efficiency of two floating macrophytes (Lemna minor...
