description | China is conducting ecological restoration work in urban water bodies. Under anoxic and anaerobic conditions, pollutants transform and produce odorous and black substances, deteriorating the water quality, which is a significant problem in urban water bodies. Vallisneria natans has received widespread attention for its applications in water treatment and restoration. However, the efficiency by which V. natans reduces water pollution and allows sediment remediation requires further improvement. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effect of V. natans coupled with carbon fiber on the restoration of water bodies and sediment compared with the control group that grew V. natans without carbon fiber. The oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) was selected as the main evaluation index for the water and sediment. Dissolved oxygen in the water and total organic carbon and total nitrogen (TN) in the sediment were also evaluated. V. natans coupled with carbon fiber significantly increased the ORP; that of surface sediment increased by 50 % and that of the water body increased by 60 % compared with the sediment without any bioremediation. Chemical oxygen demand, total phosphorous, and TN in water decreased by 61.2 %, 22.9 %, and 48.3 %, respectively. These results indicate that planting V. natans with carbon fiber can reduce pollutants in water (including humus) and sediments, effectively improving ORP in water and sediment. |
