The capability of Glossostigma elatinoides to accumulate Al, Mn, Fe and Mg from contaminated landfill leachate through in vitro landscape ecological model system

The growth of solid waste generation in Malaysia from year 2005 to 2013 statistically has risen from 19,000 tonne to 33,000 tonne per day. This rapid increase mainly affected the number of landfill which is the final disposal destination of solid waste. Landfill is very crucial site which need...

Aquatic plants are known to have capability in sequestering heavy metals in phytoremediation. This is because it contains variety in species, high multiplication rate, global distribution and faster in growth. Therefore, this research aimed to assess heavy metals sequestration rate of Glossostigma elatinoides at three different concentrations ranging from low, medium and high (0.5 mol, 1.0 mol and 2.0 mol) of four types of heavy metal (Al, Mn, Fe, Mg) at four different periods of time (week 1 until week 4) through in vitro landscape ecological model system. The results established that there were significant differences between the sequestration rates of the plant, type of heavy metals, level of concentration, period of time and their interactions. This aquatic plant species has capability and resistance over 4 types of heavy metal toxicity. Hence, the high correlation between metal removal in soil and this aquatic plant species indicates that this species can be used effectively for the removal of heavy metals from polluted or contaminated landfill soil of different concentrations. 2015 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed application/pdf en http://irep.iium.edu.my/45816/1/45816.pdf Othman, Rashidi and Mat Ali, Qurratu Aini and Baharuddin, Zainul Mukrim and Sahidin, Norhanizan (2015) The capability of Glossostigma elatinoides to accumulate Al, Mn, Fe and Mg from contaminated landfill leachate through in vitro landscape ecological model system.
