The technique of using aquatic plants in remediation of wastewater has received a good attention because of its eco-friendliness, efficiency and low cost. Untreated domestic wastewater when released into the nearby water bodies has denying effects on the environment. Aquatic plants perform well in removing the contaminants from domestic wastewater. The intention of this study is to find out the efficiency of Pennywort in removing nitrogen, phosphorous from wastewater. Sample was analyzed for Nitrogen (Nitrate(NO3), Ammoniacal(NH4)) and Phosphate. It was apparent that Pennywort performed well in nutrient removal. With a treatment for ten days, its efficiency was 72.4%, 70.8% and 76% in the removal of Nitrate, Ammoniacal and Phosphate respectively. The water treated with the help of aquatic plants can be taken for non-potable uses. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
