Abstract: Due to over human population rate of degradation of environment and pollution increases day by day. As various heavy metals are main pollutant which causes hazardous effects on every living organism. Such a toxic pollutants can be removed from waste water by using physical chemical and biological methods but physical and chemical methods are costly and also causes negative impact onhabitats of living organisms. Therefore biological methods such as phytoremediation (water Hyacinth) and ecofriendly method which isNot only eco-friendly but also economically affordable. This research paper proves that study plants can be used to nuterlies the hazardous effects of heavy metals
