Independent EM bioremediation, MA phytoremediation and
symbiotic MAeEM bioremediation mode for the removal of
ammonia and phosphorus were elucidated successfully in this
study. Inoculation of EM-1 in the MA phytoremediation enhance
the symbiotic MAeEM culture condition in term of dissolved oxygen
and pH regulation. Higher removal rates were observed in
various inoculation of MA in the symbiotic MAeEM bioremediation
with the addition of EM. In addition, the release of phosphorus due
to the degradation of bioremediators at the end of treatment period
was suspended within the symbiotic MAeEM bioremediation
mode. Symbiotic MAeEM bioremediation however were insignificant
as compared to MA phytoremediation mode in term of the
ammonia removal curve and reduction rate.
