Weeds have become an obstacle to the productivity of farmers today. Their presence is considered to be unwanted plants and deemed suitable for disposal. One weed that easily reproduces in large numbers is Neomarica longifolia (Iris Flower). Iris Flowers grow abundantly in drier lands and are resistant to hot weather. Although Iris Flowers can be used as ornamental plants in home gardens, they are sometimes still considered weeds due to their rapid reproduction and their ability to thrive both on land and in water. This study aims to determine the phytoremediation ability of iris flowers for waste originating from household waste. The waste was collected from residential areas near factories. Phytoremediation has advantages compared to other waste management techniques, including time efficiency, environmental friendliness, and ease of implementation. The research method used in this study employed a randomized block design with 2 treatments, namely household waste concentrations, calculating BOD and COD values (0%, 50%, and 100%). The study results showed that household waste contains COD, BOD, and initial metal levels higher than the established environmental quality standards. With treatment over 30 days consecutive, household waste was given 15 mL of POC in 5 liters of water with 3 repetitions. Neomarica longifolia influences the reduction of COD, BOD, and MBAS in household wastewater, and is capable of accumulating metals such as Fe, Sulfur, Pb, and Phosphorus. This was proven by the presence of metal accumulation from AAS analysis results.
