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 کاملEvaluation of Blue Tilapia (Oreochromis aureus) for Duckweed (Lemna minor) Control in South Carolina's Private Waters
We evaluated the consumption of duckweed (Lemna minor, Linnaeus) by juvenile Blue Tilapia (Oreochromis aureus, Steindachner) through 48 hour indoor tank feeding trials. Feeding trials consisted of 5 tanks (4 treatment, 1 control). Tanks were stocked with 25 g of fresh duckweed at the initiation of each feeding trial. Designated treatment tanks were also stocked with 1 tilapia per tank. At the e...
متن کاملAdjuvants Affect Duckweed (Lemna minor) Control with Pelargonic Acid
Duckweeds (Lemna spp.) are small, free floating aquatic plants that flourish on stagnant or slow moving water surfaces throughout the world. Members of the genus are among the smallest flowering plants, providing food for fish and fowl, but their aggressive growth and invasive tendencies make them formidable aquatic weeds, which when uncontrolled can result in oxygen depletion, fish kills, and ...
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 کاملEcotoxicological assessment of industrial effluent using duckweed (Lemna minor L.) as a test organism.
This study aimed at assessing the toxic effects of industrial effluents using duckweed (Lemna minor L.) plants as a test system. Growth inhibition test according to standardized protocol (ISO 20079) was performed. The suitability of the Comet assay (indicates DNA damage) and certain parameters such as peroxidase activity and lipid peroxidation level, as biomarkers for environmental monitoring w...
