ABSTRAK
Isu kekurangan sumber air bersih
merupakan salah satu masalah utama pada masa kini. Bahan pencemar di dalam air
merupakan antara penyumbang kepada masalah ini. Salah satu alternatif yang
utama dalam penyingkiran bahan pencemar daripada air sisa adalah melalui kaedah
fitoremediasi. Kajian ini bertujuan mengkaji kecekapan Azolla
pinnata dalam merawat air sisa menggunakan kaedah fitoremediasi.
Keberkesanan A. pinnata untuk menyerap nutrien adalah bergantung kepada
kualiti air sisa dan kuantiti A. pinnata yang digunakan. Seterusnya satu
uji kaji untuk menentukan biojisim A. pinnata selepas rawatan
fitoremediasi telah dijalankan. Dalam hasil kajian ini, ammonia dan fosfat
merupakan parameter yang utama dalam menentukan keberkesanan rawatan air sisa
akuakultur menggunakan kaedah fitoremediasi A. pinnata. Hasil kajian
menunjukkan penurunan drastik nilai ammonia apabila air sisa dirawat
menggunakan A. pinnata iaitu daripada nilai bacaan purata 7.47 ke 1.67
mg/L. Sementara itu, kepekatan fosfat juga menunjukkan penurunan ketara selepas
air sisa dirawat dengan A. pinnata daripada nilai purata 5.73 kepada
1.22 mg/L. Hasil daripada rawatan air sisa akuakultur dengan menggunakan
fitoremediasi A. pinnata dapat menunjukkan perubahan disebabkan oleh
peningkatan biojisim dengan nilai tertinggi 147.26 gram.

ABSTRACT
The issue of lack of clean water
sources is one of the main problems today. Pollutants in the water is one of
the contributors to the problem. One of the major alternatives in the removal
of pollutants from wastewater is through phytoremediation. The objective of
this research was to determine the efficiency of phytoremediation method in
treating wastewater using Azolla pinnata. The efficacy of A.
pinnata to absorb nutrients is dependent on the quality of wastewater and
the quantity of A. pinnata. Further, an experiment to determine the A.
pinnata biomass by phytoremediation method was carried out. The results of
this study show that ammonia and phosphate were the main parameters in
determining the effectiveness of aquaculture wastewater treatment using A.
pinnata. The results showed a drastic decline in the ammonia when the
wastewater was treated with A. pinnata from the average reading value of
7.47 to 1.67 mg/L. Meanwhile, phosphate concentration also showed a drastic
decline after the wastewater was treated with A. pinnata from the
average value of 5.73 to 1.22 mg/L. The results of treatment of aquaculture
wastewater by using phytoremediation of A. pinnata was able to show
changes due to an increase in biomass with the highest value of 147.26 gram.
