ABSTRACT:
In the presence of this aquatic, submerged, free-floating higher plant (rigid hornwort) in water system, it was occured that a decrease in concentrations of the four heavy metals (cadmium, copper, lead, zinc; Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb) in the water medium accelerated. The aquatic macrophytes served as a factor to speed up the water purification (decontamination) process in the aquatic system. The method for measuring the heavy metals was stripping voltammetry.
