Abstract

This study investigated the removal of three concentrations of heavy metal salts, namely nickel chloride, manganese chloride, cobalt chloride and zinc chloride in the Phytoremediation of two aquatic plants (Schoenoplectus litoralis and Salvinia natans), and the determination of the level of total chlorophyll and protein by the exposure to two water plants (Schoenoplectus litoralis and Salvinia naturalans). Two samples of each plant were taken every ten days to determine the heavy metal, protein and chlorofyll after 30 days. The experiment was completed. At the end of the experiment, the results of the study showed different concentration levels of heavy metals in tissue in the plant and showed decreasing total chlorophyll and protein concentrations for the aquatic plant.
