Abstract The aim of the study was to evaluate efficiency Lemna minor purify synthetic dairy wastewater (SDW) and real (RDW), both diluted undiluted. Results showed that significantly reduced electrical conductivity (EC); removal for EC 19.4% in RDW 9.8% SDW. Higher values were recorded (DRDW) (41%) (DSDW) (35.8%). Total suspended solids slightly (14%) SDW (13.5%), compared DSDW (25%) DRDW (29%)...

In this study, phytoremediation performance of Lemna minor L. on boron removal from synthetic solution and real geothermal water was evaluated. Effects initial concentration, pH, height in cell, humic acid concentration were investigated. The maximum efficiency achieved as 96.7 % with the experimental run 5 mg L-1 pH 8, 1.5 cm depth. Increasing to 30 resulted a drastic decrease 36.6 %, due toxi...

Phytoremediation, a plant based green technology, has received increasing attention after the discovery of hyperaccumulating plants which are able to accumulate, translocate, and concentrate high amount of certain toxic elements in their above-ground/harvestable parts. Phytoremediation includes several processes namely, phytoextraction, phytodegradation, rhizofiltration, phytostabilization and ...
