THE IMPACT OF DIFFERENT GROWTH MEDIA ON THE PHYTOREMEDIATION OF CU BY BOTH LEMNAMINOR AND ATMOSPHERIC DUST
Abstract
The impact of
different growth media on the phytoremediation of Cu by Lemna minor an
association with atmospheric dust. In this study the remediation capacity of
the aquatic macrophyte Lemna Minor of Cu (II) from a simulated natural
environment in two types of media for growth, water and atmospheric dust has
been investigated.
Its further
known that atmospheric dust during the transportation of their long-range can
be altered within the clouds via the action of its bacteriological fraction and
alsoin the results of the formation of reduced iron consists of various
essential trace elements as well as amino acids.
Experiments were
carried concentrations (0.05, 0.5, and 5.0 mg/l ) copper and a metal-free control group
maintained under same conditions as the test medium.
By using
atmospheric dust is comparable and if not better than those obtained by using
water that are assumed to be an ideal remediation heavy metal of the aquatic
seystem.
Significant
difference was found between the using L. minor in atmospheric dust and ın
water absorption rates of Cu occurs within 7 days of metal exposure.
According to
results of this present study, equal and better remediate of Cu (II) can be
achieved by using atmospheric dust as compared to water.
Overall, whene using atmospheric dust L. minor
removed 18% copper 24% copper 1.8 % copper more than another sample
concentrations in water in 0.05, 0.5 and 5.0 mg/l concentrations of copper in
the experiment.
