Salinity management is becoming a critical environmental issue for municipalities across nations. Wastewater effluent must remain a viable water resource for irrigation of crops and indirect potable use through groundwater recharge. The aim of this study was to investigate to what degree Ceratophyllum demersum (C. demersum) decreases salinity in aquatic environments. Treatments included raw municipal wastewater (RMW), treated municipal wastewater (TMW), and diluted fresh latex (DFL). It was concluded that C. demersum could be used to remove salinity from wastewater and merits further study as a saline reduction method for wastewater.
