To address this, current techniques include excavation, chemical stabilization and soil flushing, but these methods are costly and impractical. One of the ecologically accepted treatments is phytoremediation. With the capacity of Centella asiatica (gotu kola) to thrive in moist soils with domestic effluents, this present study sought to evaluate its phytoremediation potential by employing an experimental design with three replicates of: (a

The aim of this study was to evaluate and validate the effects of using treated wastewater on the vegetative growth and nutrients content of three years old zard olive (Olea. europaea L.) trees.
The experiments were carried out for 4 years (2009 – 2013) in random complete blocks in three treatments with six repetitions. The treatments were: subsurface drip irrigation with wastewater (T1), subsurface drip irrigation with wastewater in 15 cm depth (T2) and subsurface drip irrigation with wastewater in 30 cm depth (T3).
Wastewater from the treatment plant of the Boroujerd, Iran was used. The present study was designed to determine the effect of subsurface drip irrigation with wastewater in 30 cm depth as compared to other treatments had higher growth parameters, nutrients content and had seen significant difference.
Another important finding was that drip irrigation T1 with wastewater, had lower growth parameters as compared to another treatments.
In T3, plants absorb water and essential elements, better than other treatments because irrigation source is near the root zone.

Let’s get some knowledge about this research.  Abstract Coastal area of East Java Sea has long been threatened by industrial source pollution, mangrove conversion into shrimp culture, over fishing, destructive fishing, sedimentation, and coastal settlement. Heavy-metal is probably the most threat that directly influ
