Phytoremediation potential of water spinach, ipomoea aquatic and aquaponic farming system in improving water quality of heavy metals contaminated water resources

Water spinach, ipomoea aquatic which is grows largely in Southeast Asia, Southern China and India may contain heavy metals that come from their surroundings habitats. This study was conducted to determine the concentration of the heavy metals contain in water sample and water spinach sample after gr...
