Potential of Aquatic Plant as Phytoremediator for Treatment of Petrochemical Wastewater in Gebeng Area, Kuantan

Malaysia is a vast developing country that partly relies on its oil and gas sector industries for economic growth. However, rapid industrialization has resulted in production of massive amount of wastewater daily that may contain heavy metals and other contaminants. Phytoremediation is a promising t...
