Preparation and Mechanical Characterizations of Water Hyacinth Fiber Based Thermoset Epoxy Composite
Composites of water hyacinth fiber thermoset epoxy (WHE) composites were developed and characterized. Water hyacinth (WH) fibers were treated in an optimized 6% concentration of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution for an hour before composite fabrication by

Phytoremediation of microplastics by water hyacinth. [PDF]
Microplastics have emerged as pervasive environmental pollutants, posing significant risks to both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems worldwide. Current remediation strategies-including physical, chemical, and microbial methods-are inadequate for large-scale, in situ removal of microplastics, highlighting the urgent need for alternative solutions ...
