The invention provides a method for reducing
heavy metals in river-going overland runoff by
aquatic plant matched growth, belonging to the technical field of heavy-
metal-polluted river course restoration. According to the method, emerging plants
calamus and reed, submerged plants Potamogeton pusillus,
hydrilla, curly pondweed and watermilfoil, and floating
plant common waaterrthacinth are grown from the riverbank to the river center. The growth density of the emerging plants is 10-20 plants / m<2>, and the growth proportion of the
calamus and reed is 1:(1-3); the growth density of the submerged plants is 30-50 clumps / m<2>, and the growth proportion of the Potamogeton pusillus,
hydrilla, curly pondweed and watermilfoil is 1:(1-2):(3-5):(1-2); and the growth density of the floating
plant common waaterrthacinth is 10-20 plants / m<2>. The
plant growth process is utilized to absorb and enrich heavy
metal ions in water, thereby achieving the goal of restoring the river-going multi-heavy-
metal combined
pollution river course. The method has the advantages of small secondary
pollution, simple restoration process, low cost and the like, and can maintain the balance of the ecological
system in water. The method for treating the polluted river course has environmental value, ecological value and ornamental value.
