| Publisher Description: The purpose of this research was to study three different wetland plant species and to compare the chlorinated solvent removal efficiency among each species. Each plant has a different characteristic favorable for chlorinated solvent degradation. Eleocharis erythropoda (Spike Rush) are plants with thin tube like leaves and large root mass. Carex Comosa (longhaired Sedge) has broad leaves and Scirpus Atrovirens (Green Bulrush) are broad leafed wetland plants with a long flowering stem. Previous research had shown that wetlands were effective at degradating PCE. |
