Bioaccumulation of rare earth element by water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes)

Processing of rare earth elements produces environmental wastewater pollution containing toxic contaminants. However, these pollutants could be monitored through bioaccumulation using aquatic plant, Pistia stratiotes. Thus, the present research aims to determine the effectiveness of P. stratiotes...
