Abstract

Escalating waste production due to population growth and diverse community activities poses environmental and public health threats. To mitigate these effects, this study investigates using water bamboo (Equisetum hyemale) in phytoremediation. A comprehensive literature review was conducted, analyzing articles from 2011-2024 from Indonesian language journals. Ten articles were selected, focusing on the phytoremediation of four types of waste: tofu industry waste, leachate, domestic waste, and lead. Findings reveal water bamboo’s potential as a phytoremediation agent, effectively reducing waste levels in various contexts. For instance, it reduced BOD, COD, and TTS in tofu industry waste; Pb, Zn, Cr, DO, and pH in leachate waste; BOD, COD, and detergent levels in domestic waste; and lead in lead (Pb) industrial waste. The study underscores the potential of water bamboo in real-world liquid waste management applications, contributing to sustainable waste management strategies and addressing environmental and public health challenges.

Abstract

The aquatic bamboo plant (Equisetum hyemale) can be used as a phytoremediation agent because it has hyperaccumulator properties and is hyper-tolerant of pollutants. With the increasing number of industrial and household activities, managing waste before it is disposed of directly into the environment. This research aims to determine the application of phytoremediation in reducing pollutant content in water pollution waste. The research method was carried out using a literature research design review of the Google Scholar and SINTA databases starting from publication year 2014 to 2023 by reviewing a total of ten national journal articles. The research results show that phytoremediation can reduce wastewater pollution content, especially BOD and COD levels accumulated by the roots of aquatic bamboo plants. The effective time for the phytoremediation method is 3 days, 5 days, and 12 days which can reduce the number of contaminants in sample water according to wastewater quality standards. The novelty of this research is in the variables studied, namely BOD and COD levels using aquatic bamboo plants.
