Remediation of Cu in the Contaminated Soil by Using Equisetum debile (Horsetail)

Abstract: Abstract. Paddy fields in the Rancaekek area, Bandung Regency-Indonesia, has been contaminated by textile wastewater. The area needs to recover back to its normal condition and function. Several compounds were found in the soil, such as Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, Co, Ni, and Cr. Phytoremediation was selected as a site remediation strategy, which employs plants to remove non-volatile and immiscible soil contents. The objective of the study was to determine the ability of Equisetum debile to absorb Cu from the contaminated… Show more

“…At such concentrations there is no appearance of leaves, seeds do not germinate, even the seed coat cannot open because of the high toxicity of the metal. This is in accordance with the theory that heavy metals have toxic properties that in high concentrations can affect the physiological processes of organisms, including plants (Rahmaniar and Kamil, 2015), where heavy metal solutions are absorbed into the seeds, then damage the parts in them, inhibit the activation of hydrolytic enzymes so that seed germination becomes slow, as well as the unavailability of food reserves so that seeds do not have nutrients to continue to grow to form leaves and increase in height.…”

“…Similarly, on the basis of the subject category co-occurrence network burst detection, “Science & Technology-Other Topics”, which had a burst beginning at the year of 2016, and “Engineering, Multidisciplinary”, “Engineering, Chemical”, and “Green & Sustainable Science & Technology”, with burst beginning at the years of 2014–2016, represent a new trend in the research and development of phytoremediation of HMs, and these categories can be identified as trends in the subject categories. These subject categories are generally applicable, focused on engineering, and comprehensive, and may provide evidence for the application of engineering practices to phytoremediation of HMs [36,37,38,39].…”
