in order to develop a new technique for the removal of arsenic compoundsfrom acidified water, the removal of arsenic compounds by an acidophilic moss, Jungermannia vulcanicola Steph. was investigated in this study. The result of vial tests for arsenic removal is dependent on the biological activity of moss. The presence of phosphate inhibited the arsenic removal. And the acclimatization of moss by the media containing arsenic increased the its capability of arsenic remova.
