Summary/Abstract: This article describes the possibilities of using Lemnaceae biomass as a possible raw material for the development of renewable energy. In the first part, the authors analyze the causes of eutrophication as a process of enrichment of water reservoirs that favors the development of potential energy substrates. Next, the role of macrophytes in restoring the ecological balance of freshwater ecosystems, as well as the biofuel potential of Lemnaceae plants, is presented.
