Bioconversion of water hyacinth hydrolysate into ethanol
The fast growing aquatic weed water hyacinth, which is available almost year-round in the tropics and subtropics, was utilized as the chief source of cellulose for production of fuel ethanol via enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. Fungal cellulases produced on-site by utilizing acid-alkali pretreated water hyacinth as the substrate were used as the ...

Calcium Ion Impregnated on Water Hyacinth for Defluoridation of Water [PDF]
Eichhornia Crassipes) leaf powder was used as biomass along with the loaded calcium ion. Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) was used as doping reagent in microwave. Batch experiments were carried out for 5-25 mg/l of fluoride concentration. It was observed that using water hyacinth loaded with the calcium ion 83.34 % fluoride removal was achieved.

VERMICOMPOST AS AN ALTERNATIVE OF MANAGEMENT FOR WATER HYACINTH
Aquatic weeds, such as Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms (water hyacinth) can be used as raw material for vermicompost. Vermicompost is the product of microbial decomposition of organic waste through the digestive tracts of earthworms. The aim of this work was to use water hyacinth to obtain stable and mature vermicompost.
