Disclosed are applications of humic acid (HA) in improving phytoremediation efficiency of heavy metals in waterbody, relating to the technical field of environmental ecological engineering. The phytoremediation of heavy metals is achieved by reducing heavy metals content in the waterbody by planting Vallisneria natans. HA is added to slow down the degreening of Vallisneria natans leaves under heavy metal toxicity, and to increase the accumulation of leaves and roots of Vallisneria natans to heavy metals, together with reducing the leaching capacity of heavy metals in waterbody; HA enhances the activity of enzymes related to reactive oxygen metabolism in plants by stimulating the synthesis of proteins and enzymes in various organs of plants, as well as reducing the concentration of malondialdehyde in plants, regulating the reactive oxygen content in plants, reducing the peroxidation of membrane lipids, and enhancing the resistance of plants to heavy metals.

Products and methods related to the enhancement of efficacy of algaecides and/or aquatic herbicides using metallic trivalent cations, as well as the reduction in ecotoxicity and non-target effects and preservation of water quality. Some embodiments advantageously provide the benefit of binding phosphorus, but allow for a substantial reduction in the dissolved trivalent metal and an increased ability to target the main source of future phosphorus release. In one aspect of an embodiment, a trivalent cation delivery system includes a commonly available commodity that can be simultaneously added to the water or mixed in a tank prior to the application, avoiding the need for an industrial process to cohere the components. In another aspect of the embodiment, the trivalent cation delivery system may be accomplished by the use of an algaecide and/or aquatic herbicide prior to the application of the phosphorus binding metal.
