Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) rapidly invades lakes and also disrupting ecosystems.

This study explores how water hyacinth from Tasik Raudhah (USIM) can be converted into fish feed, bio-adsorbents, organic ethanol and paper using simple laboratory methods.

Rich in cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, proteins and minerals, this study aim to represents a renewable source for bio making of pallet foods , bioethanol and other products, demonstrating the potential of transforming an environmental problem into useful resources while improving lake health.
