Physical and morphological characterization of heavy metal adsorption by floating manmade wetland / Mohd Ghazali Mohd Khomaruzaman

Ipomoea aquatic (water based plant) as a natural treatment was chosen as research subject. Two type of analyzation was classified which is morphology characterization, to analyze the physical sight observable change (color spectrum, shape, size) on each of the plant's limb (leaf, stem and root)...

Two type of analyzation was classified which is morphology characterization, to analyze the physical sight observable change (color spectrum, shape, size) on each of the plant's limb (leaf, stem and root) and heavy metal analysis which is to find out the containment of selected trace heavy metals (Cr, K and P) on the plant.
