Sewage water treatment using vetiver grass

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2021
Abstract In recent years, water pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems of mankind. With rapid development of many industries, wastes containing pollutants are directly or indirectly being discharged into the environment. Wetland is a technique which helps to treat the water economically at a core level.

Uprooting of Vetiver Uprooting Resistance of Vetiver Grass (Vetiveria zizanioides)

Plant and Soil, 2005
Vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides), also known as Chrysopogon zizanioides, is a graminaceous plant native to tropical and subtropical India. The southern cultivar is sterile; it flowers but sets no seeds. It is a densely tufted, perennial grass that is considered sterile outside its natural habitat.

Metabolic response of vetiver grass (Chrysopogon zizanioides) to acid mine drainage

Chemosphere, 2020
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is a sulfuric discharge containing metals and particulates that can spread to nearby water sources, imposing toxicity and physical stress to living things. We have shown that vetiver grass (Chrysopogon zizanioides) is capable of tolerating and treating AMD-impacted water from the abandoned Tab-Simco mining site from southern ...
