Abstract:Nowadays eutrophication of the receiving waterbody is a serious problem worldwide. Increased production of algae can result in undesirable effects on water quality, biodiversity and health. The paper gave an introduction to contaminated characteristics, side-effects and various methods of eutrophication in waterbodies, and discussion of in situ bioremediation to control eutrophication. The study was carried out to bioremediate eutrophicated scenery waterbody in greenhouse by adding of Alcaligenes faecalis suspended liquid (0.05‰, 0.1‰ or 0.2‰). It was indicated that the total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP) and NTU were significantly reduced. When the quantity of consortium added was 0.1‰, it showed the highest removal efficiencies of TN and TP. By further research, the results indicated that TN and TP were significantly reduced. At application rate of 0.1‰, A. faecalis could effectively remove nitrogen, phosphorus, and alga in the body was basically controlled.
