Abstract

One of the burning problems of our industrial society is the high consumption of water and the high demand for clean drinking water. Numerous approaches have been taken to reduce water consumption, but in the long run it seems only possible to recycle wastewater into high-quality water. The aim of this chapter is to discuss several applications of phytoremediation for waste and wastewater treatment through natural systems using macrophytes. On-site and higher scale applications are characterized, particularly for domestic, municipal, and feedlot wastewater treatment, as well as landfill restoration. Also is discussed later use of produced plant biomass.
