The invasive water hyacinth forms dense mats that clog waterways and harm native species. Studies have revealed its capability of cleaning polluted water, removing not only agricultural runoff and heavy metals, but also microplastics, without harming the plants in the process.

Water hyacinth sa South America, mabisang nililinis ang microplastics

Ang mapaminsalang water hyacinth ay bumubuo ng makakapal na kumpol na bumabara sa mga daluyan ng tubig at nakakasama sa mga katutubong uri ng hayop at halaman. Gayunpaman, lumabas sa mga pag-aaral na kaya nitong linisin ang maruming tubig. Naaalis nito hindi lamang ang mga kemikal mula sa agrikultura at mabibigat na metal, kundi pati na rin ang microplastics, nang hindi nasisira ang mismong halaman.
