(some col.) ; 30 cm. + 1 CD ROM Phytoremediation is an emerging clean up technology for contaminated soils, groundwater, and wastewater that is both low-tech and low-cost, is defined as the engineered use of green plants (including grasses, forbs, and woody species) to remove, contain, or render harmless such environmental contaminants as heavy metals, trace elements, organic compounds, and radioactive compounds in soil or water. The purpose of this study is to investigate the capability and performance of submerged leaves species to remove and remediate contaminant substances such as metal and other organic material which attend in the water sample collected. Submerged plants such as Hydrilla Verticillata Sp. (Esthwaite Waterweed) and Myriophyllum Aquaticum Sp. (Parrot’s Feather) are used to remove contaminants in water using phytoremediation process. The water parameters that be tested in this research is Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Chemical Oxygen Demand, Suspended Solid, and pH, Turbidity, Dissolved Oxygen and Heavy Metal. The study revealed that Hydrilla Verticillata is the best and most effective submerged plants species that used phytoremediation process to remove contaminant compare to Myriophyllum Aquaticum. specialized Siti Zafirah Zainuddin Faculty of Civil Engineering and Earth Resources Project Paper (Bachelors of Civil Engineering) -- Universiti Malaysia Pahang – 2017 Bibliography : p. 63-66 Faculty of Civil Engineering and Earth Resources Dissertations Universities and Colleges Dissertations Theses THE0007899(Local) UMP 180108 20251117113437.0 vtls000102694
