Efficacy of an Integrated System Incorporated with Eichhornia crassipes in Phytoremediation of Calcium from Inland Saline Water

In the present study, free floating plant Eichhornia crassipes was used for the phytoremediation of calcium from inland saline water by using water having salinity of 2.5, 5 and 7.5 ppt for one week each. Water samples were collected on 0th, 4th and 6th day and plant sample was at end of the experim...

Zusammenfassung:In the present study, free floating plant Eichhornia crassipes was used for the phytoremediation of calcium from inland saline water by using water having salinity of 2.5, 5 and 7.5 ppt for one week each. Water samples were collected on 0th, 4th and 6th day and plant sample was at end of the experiment for calcium estimation and for other water quality parameters i.e., total hardness (TH), total alkalinity (TA), dissolved oxygen (DO), carbon dioxide (CO2), potassium (K) and pH on 0th and 6th day of the experiment. There was a significant difference in the calcium uptake (P
