As macrófitas aquáticas colonizam o reservatório de Santana desde seu enchimento em 1955 em função da eutrofização da água, especialmente a ingressa pelo Canal de Santa Cecília, bombeada do Rio Paraíba do Sul. A colheita mecânica é o principal método adotado para a retirada destas plantas, visando prevenir interferências no meio ambiente e usos múltiplos da água e do corpo hídrico. Este trabalho foi realizado por três anos com o objetivo da avaliar as composições químicas das principais macrófitas que formam a biomassa retirada pela colheita mecânica e inferir sobre os riscos de sua utilização na recuperação de solos de áreas degradadas. As macrófitas avaliadas foram Salvinia molesta, Eichhornia crassipes, Pistia stratiotes, Enydra sessilis, Polygonum lapathifolium, Eichhornia azurea, Urochloa subquadripara, Panicum rivulare, Egeria densa e Potamogeton pectinatus. Os padrões de concentrações de nutrientes foram diferentes entre plantas marginais, flutuantes e submersas, houve variação sazonal dentro das espécies, os valores foram compatíveis com a literatura e as concentrações de metais pesados foram abaixo das exigências legais para fertilizantes orgânicos. Os resultados sugerem baixo risco ambiental da utilização direta desta biomassa na recuperação de áreas degradadas.

O presente estudo apresenta espécies de macrófitas aquáticas estudadas em sete estações de amostragem na Área Diretamente Afetada e Área de Influência Direta no Riacho Seco na futura barragem de Brejão, região Agreste de Pernambuco-Brasil trazendo informações sobre sua indicação como parâmetro no monitoramento da qualidade da água. A amostragem ocorreu em março de 2012 compreendendo o período seco, utilizou-se o método do Quadrado para quantificar a biomassa seca média, identificação florística das espécies, Frequência de Ocorrência (F.O) e Formas de vida. 22 espécies de macrófitas foram identificadas, onde Alternanthera philoxeroides, Commelina erecta, Cyperus articulatus, Egeria densa, Myriophyllum aquaticum, Nymphoides indica e Polygonum acuminatum foram algumas constantes com 55% de F.O. Eichhornia crassipes, Lemna sp., Pistia stratiotes e Salvinia auriculata foram algumas das espécies comuns com 45%. Quanto às formas de vida, 54% emergentes, 32% flutuante livre, 13% flutuante fixa e 1% submersa livre. Polygonum acuminatum apresentou a maior variação de biomassa seca média em todas as estações, com 5,58±9,67 (gPS.m2) na montante, 48,89±12,71(gPS.m2) na ADA I, 5,23±9,06 (gPS.m2) na 500 m e 92,22±35,60(gPS.m2) na jusante II. Para os parâmetros físico-químicos 2 estações apresentaram média de oxigênio dissolvido abaixo do limite estabelecido pela Resolução Conama 357; 5,0 mL, nitrato e nitrito apresentaram concentrações de

Abstract This paper is concerned with the study of ecology and invasive behaviour of southern tropical invaders (Egeria densa, Pistia stratiotes, Eichornia crassipes) in the setting of urban landscape water bodies with a temperate climate (the case of Kyiv, Ukraine). The article explores the role of a city as a source of invasions. It shows that escape from aquaculture (aquariums or decorative ponds) or deliberate release into natural water bodies are the main settlement solution. A brief historical background of these species found in water bodies of Ukraine has been presented. Favourable treatment for modern invasions of pantropical species has been analysed. Phytocoenotic special aspects of the communities formed by these species and ways and possibilities of naturalization of species in natural water bodies have been explored. Production indicators are being analysed.

The aquatic plant Pistia stratiotes L. is environmentally hazardous and requires effective methods for its utilization. The harmfulness of these plants is determined by their excessive growth in water bodies and degradation of local aquatic ecosystems. Mechanical removal of these plants is widespread but requires fairly resource-intensive technology. However, these aquatic plants are polymer-containing substrates and have a great potential for conversion into bioenergy. The aim of the work was to determine the main patterns of Pistia stratiotes L. degradation via granular microbial preparation (GMP) to obtain biomethane gas while simultaneously detoxifying toxic copper compounds. The composition of the gas phase was determined via gas chromatography. The pH and redox potential parameters were determined potentiometrically, and Cu(II) concentration photocolorimetrically. Applying the preparation, high efficiency of biomethane fermentation of aquatic plants and Cu(II) detoxification were achieved. Biomethane yield reached 68.0 ± 11.1 L/kg VS of Pistia stratiotes L. biomass. The plants’ weight was decreased by 9 times. The Cu(II) was completely removed after 3 and 10 days of fermentation from initial concentrations of 100 ppm and 200 ppm, respectively. The result confirms the possibility of using the GMP to obtain biomethane from environmentally hazardous substrates and detoxify copper-contaminated fluids.
