As we all know that water is essential to all forms of life and makes up about 70% of the human body weight. Due to the direct link of water quality with human welfare, the quality of water is of vital concern. Industrialization plays major role in the development of a country’s economy. However, these plants and industries generate hazardous by-products and discharge them directly or partially treated into the environment which contaminates the surface water, ground water and soil causing a great threat to the life of human beings, animal and plants. In the present investigation an attempt has been made to identify the potential of water hyacinth (Eichornia crassipus) and Duckweed (Lemna minor) for the treatment of industrial waste water generated from Dehradun industrial area using phytoremediation technology on the basis of different physicochemical parameters such as pH, EC, DO, ORP, Salinity, TDS, BOD, COD, Hardness and Temperature. Eichornia crassipus shows maximum decrease in pH, TDS and COD and Lemna minor shows maximum decrease in EC, ORP, Salinity, BOD and TH. In case of DO maximum decrease was observed in control experiment. During the assessment period Lemna minor was found highly efficient in comparison to Eichornia crassipus. Both water hyacinth (Eichornia crassipus) and Duckweed (Lemna minor) shows maximum removal between 1st to 5th day of treatment but the removal goes down as the experiment proceeds towards the end as the retarded growth of plants was observed due to toxicity of accumulated pollutants inside the palnts.

Phytoremediation of Analytical Laboratory of Jember University Waste Water by The Use of Water Hyacinth and Cattail PlantsAnalytical laboratory waste water at Jember University has organic and inorganic materials which can be categorized as biodegradable or non-biodegradable wastes. This study focused on comparing the ability between water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) and cattail (Typha angustifolia) plant in reducing the pollutants as a consideration in selecting plants for waste water treatment at Jember University. The stages in this research consisted of filtration using silica sand, adsorption using activated carbon and zeolites, and phytoremediation using water hyacinth and cattail plants. The phytoremediation treatment was carried out during 14 days with a density of 40 g L–1. Cattail plant treatment had a higher value of pollutant reduction efficiency in waste water compared to water hyacinth. The reduction efficiency parameters. namely turbidity, TSS, BOD, COD, and Cr, were 92.18, 84, 74, 64, and 49%, respectively. The results of this study provide an alternative treatment for laboratory waste water which has an environmentally friendly character at Jember University.Keywords: Chromium (Cr), Eichhornia crassipes, filtration and adsorption, Typha angustifolia, water qualityABSTRAKAir limbah laboratorium analitik di Universitas Jember mengandung bahan organik dan anorganik yang bersifat mudah diuraikan maupun toksik. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah membandingkan kemampuan reduksi polutan oleh eceng gondok (Eichhornia crassipes) dan lembang (Typha angustifolia) sebagai pertimbangan pemilihan tanaman untuk menangani air limbah laboratorium di lingkungan Universitas Jember. Tahapan penelitian terdiri atas filtrasi menggunakan pasir silika, adsorpsi menggunakan karbon aktif dan zeolit, serta fitoremediasi menggunakan eceng gondok dan lembang. Waktu tanaman eceng gondok dan lembang diinkubasi menggunakan teknik fitoremediasi selama 14 hari dengan densitas 40 g L–1. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penanganan air limbah menggunakan lembang memiliki nilai efisiensi reduksi polutan pada air limbah lebih tinggi daripada eceng gondok. Nilai efisiensi reduksi tersebut berupa parameter kekeruhan, TSS, BOD, COD, dan Cr secara berurutan sebesar 92,18, 84, 74, 64, dan 49%. Hasil penelitian ini menjadi alternatif penanganan air limbah laboratorium yang ramah lingkungan.
