Abstract
Aquatic plants Azolla was grown for phytoremediation treatment in the range 0 (Control), 25, 50, 75 and 100 percent effluent. Maximum values in Azolla plants were observed at 50 percent effluents, for fresh matter yield and dry matter yield of 15 and 30 days growth, chlorophyll contents 25 percent level of 15 and 30 days. Overall study was concluded that aquatic plants were beneficial as bioremediation treatment of effluent before using for gardening purpose and irrigation of crop plants.
