Abstract

This research was conducted to study the ability of local aquatic makrophyte to reduce the concentration of pollutant from home industry wastewater (laundry) through phytoremediation process. Parameters observed in this research were physico-chemistry characteristics of wastewater laundry. Based on characteristics analysis of wastewater laundry at 4 stations in Rumbai Pekanbaru, there were found that the wastewater categorized as polluted. There were four local aquatic makrophytes found from the identification; they were melati air (Echinodorus palaefolius), enceng gondok (Eichhornia crassipes) kayu apu (Pistia stratiotes) dan kangkung air (Ipomoea aquatic). The ability of phytoremediation process of aquatic makrophyte to increased the quality of wastewater laundry were analyzed for 20 days. After 20 days, the local aquatic makrophyte were reduced the physico-chemistry parameters of wastewater laundry. Kangkung air (Ipomoea aquatic) gave the highest ability to reduce the concentration of phosphate of wastewater laundry as compared to the other. Key Words : Phytoremediation, wastewater laundry
