Abstract: Using ion beam biotechnology in combination with soil-less plant cultivation on artificial substratum (floating beds), the experiments were conducted with Ipomoea aquatica Forsk.Plants were attached to floating-beds which were placed on the surface of artificially nutrient-enriched tank water, in order to study the purification and remediation efficiency of ion beam-treated I. aquatica cultivars.The results show that N++ ion beams with 25keV energy and dosages of 0, 2.6, 3.9, 5.2, 6.5, 7.8, 9.1 1013N++(ions)/cm2 affected I.aquatica dry seeds differently, with the dose of 3.9 1013N++(ions)/cm2 improving effectively the performance as expressed by various biological indices.After ion beam application, I.aquatica cultivars grew well in nutrient-enriched water bodies, increasing the growth of leaves and stem, number of leaves, length and area of roots, plant height, and weight more remarkably than observed in the control.The net removing rates of TN+, TP were as high as 75% and 82 %, respectively.Especially under the dose of 3.9 1013N++(ions)/cm2, the net removing rates of TN+, TP were highest, for 77% and 85 %, respectively.It was proved that ion beam application improves phytoremediation and may be used to purify nutrient rich water bodies.
