The article presents data on the study of effect technogenically polluted wastewater digital biomass and NDVI parameters phytoremediants. Analysis plant growth development was carried out Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud. (obtained by in vitro method), Typha angustifolia L. T. latifolia from seeds). All species were grown combination with various microorganisms under influence wastewa...

The effect of the glass industry on heavy metal characterization was assessed in the sludge/sediments of 5 discharge pits (sites) for effluents of functional glass factories and/or finishing workshops in the study area. A comprehensive profile of Zn, Mn, Co, Cd, Pb, Cr, Ni,Cu and As levels in industrial sludge was obtained. Correlation coefficients for metal pairs indicate varying levels (posit...

Agricultural pesticide use is necessary to help meet the increased demand for a safe and secure food supply for the United States, as well as the global community. Even with proper application and careful management, the possibility of pesticide leaching and detachment in runoff still exists following certain storm events. Several different management practices have been designed to reduce the ...

Removal of nitrogen and phosphorus is known to be somewhat problematic in vertical subsurface flow (VSSF)constructed wetlands. In this pilot-scale study, two planted (Typha latifolia L. [cattail]) VSSF-constructed wetlands A (with polypropylene pellets) and B (without polypropylene pellets) and one unplanted control C (without polypropylene pellets) were designed to test the contribution of pol...

Increased focus is being placed on the ability of native vegetation to mitigate potential harmful effects of agricultural runoff, especially pyrethroid insecticides. Replicate 379 L Rubbermaid tubs (1.25 m [l] x 0.6 m [w] x 0.8 m [h]) were planted with individual species of cutgrass (Leersia oryzoides), cattails (Typha latifolia), bur-reed (Sparganium americanum), and powdery alligator-flag (Th...

Industrial wastewater treatment comprises several processes to fulfill the discharge permits or to enable the reuse of wastewater. For tannery wastewater, constructed wetlands (CWs) may be an interesting treatment option. Two-stage series of horizontal subsurface flow CWs with Phragmites australis (UP series) and Typha latifolia (UT series) provided high removal of organics from tannery wastewa...

Wastewaters from leather processing are very complex and lead to water pollution if discharged untreated, especially due to its high organic loading. In this study the survival of different plant species in subsurface horizontal flow constructed wetlands receiving tannery wastewater was investigated. Five pilot units were vegetated with Canna indica, Typha latifolia, Phragmites australis, Steno...
