Performance analysis of a full-scale duckweed-covered sewage lagoon
190
TL;DR: In this paper, a sewage lagoon for 2000-3000 capita (0.6 ha) has been operated successfully with a duckweed cover for over four years, and the cover suppressed algal growth; the effluent turbidity was always below 12 Ntu.

A novel digestion technique for multi-element plant analyses
TL;DR: In this paper, an expedient digestion method for serial determinations of N−total, P, Na, K, Ca and Mg in plant material is proposed, where all determinations are performed on one digest, the only limitation being that the Ca content should not exceed 1100 mmol Ca per kg dry plant material.

Production, chemical quality and use of duckweeds (lemnaceae) in aquaculture, waste management, and animal feeds
TL;DR: A review of research indicates this family of plants holds high promise for producing high quality animal and human food world-wide, but the technology for controlled production under full-scale systems is incomplete.
