Uji Potensi Tumbuhan Akumulator Merkuri untuk Fitoremediasi Lingkungan Tercemar Akibat Kegiatan Penambangan Emas Tanpa Izin (PETI) di Kampung Leuwi Bolang, Desa Bantar Karet, Kecamatan Nanggung, Bogor
ABSTRACT: The research were
carried out in Hg contaminated paddy field in Kampung Leuwibolang, Desa Bantar
Karet, Kecamatan Nanggung, Kabupaten Bogor. The aim of this research is tostudy
the potency of Salvinia molesta, Oryza sativa, Monocharia vaginalis, Limnoharisflava,
Paspalum conjugatum, Cyperus monocephala, Centrosema pubescens, Mikania cordataand
Commelina nudiflora to accumulate Hg from contaminated soil. The treatments
werefertilizer: no fertilizer (as a control), NPK, manure and compost. The
result showed that thegrowth of each plant was significantly different. The
fertilizer treatments were significantly affected plant growth. The S. molesta
showed the highest biomass followed by M. vaginalis,O. sativa and C. nudiflora.
Meanwhile S. molesta also showed the highest capasity to accumulate Hg/year
followed by C. nudiflora, P. conjugatum dan M. vaginalis. Production of biomass
and accumulation capasity of contaminant were the characteristic of accumulator
plant. Based on characteristic of hyperaccumulator plant, this research
suggested that S.molesta, M. vaginalis, P. conjugatum, O. sativa dan C.
nudiflora were selected for fitoremediation of Hg contaminated soil.
