-o0o -
Breeding as one of the major sections of agriculture is playing a vital role in Vietnam including the Mekong Delta However, waste of breeding activity has not been treated well It is one of the most important reasons which cause pollution of river resources
In order to cope with these challenges, human must have experimental science to find the way to improve the environment, research to apply waste
treatment of aquatic plant with their bio-filter capability
Ludwigia (Jussiaea repens L.) is one of aquatic plants which normally
develop at riverbank, in particular in polluted environment Ludwigia has a great potential in waste treatment which is unfortunately not researched carefully
Due to this reason, this study is performed with the purpose of diving deeply
in researching Ludwigia’s capability in waste treatment The research is a sure-fire solution to apply on realistic condition due to its feasibility and low cost for a development of sustainable agriculture in Vietnam as the top aims of Sony Green competition

Trang 14CHAPTER 6: CONCLUSION - PROMOTION
-o0o - 6.1 Conclusion:
- Ludwigia has a capability to live and develop well in waste water It can filter waste water by means of change chemical-physical index in waste water, especially in waste water in 100% concentration
+ pH: it restricts the development of alga and keep value pH suitable for bacterium’s development
+ EC (Electro-conductive): decrease because low absorbtion of nutritive ions (NH4+, PO43-) in waste water, limit a phenomenon “alga bloom”
+ Concentration COD, BOD: decrease by increasing oxygen dissolve in water, create condition to acculturate the organic to the inorganic for plant absorb and root’s Ludwigia make a bracket for bacterium develop (BOD: H=87.2% and COD: H= 73.6% in waste water concentration 100%)
- Ludwigia grows in waste water with specific characteristics by a strong increase of bio-synthesis of plant after 2 weeks: length of body, quantity of leafs and colors of plant While Ludwigia grows in pure water, it has also a change but slowly after 1 week
- Color of leafs: Ludwigia grows in waste water, it has dark green colour and
leaf surface is large more than Ludgiwia which grows in pure water
6.2 Suggestion:
- We can study a change of waste concentration in breeding with Ludwigia
in condition to grow on the ground
- Investigate more indexes: TSS, TP, TN, N-NH4, PO43- (accumulation nitrogen, phosphate in body and root) and E.coli, Coliform for an accurate figure
Trang 156.3 Expand of study:
- We can evaluate quality of waste water via complex treatment system and the size of breeding farm or family
