AN APPARATUS FOR REMOVING MERCURY USING PLANTS IN WATER AND METHODS THEREOF

摘要

An apparatus of removing underwater mercury is provided to restore water system pollution by absorbing and accumulating the underwater mercury ion within the plant body using plant species having a large amount of sulfide and a tolerance to the mercury and to remove Mercury to an economic and nature-friendly method. An apparatus of removing underwater mercury removes Mercury by floating plant(8) absorbing the Mercury. The apparatus of removing underwater mercury comprises a lattice network and a holder(6). The lattice network comprises a planting part(4) which is a space in which the plant removing the Mercury is cultivated. The holder floats the lattice network and provides a frame of the lattice network.
