The aim of this work was to study the characteristics of the extracts from two halophytes, sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum L.) and marsh samphire (Salicornia europaea L.) that naturally grow on the Mediterranean coast, by using ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). Best conditions for UAE were found at temperature 50°C, 20 min extraction time, 1:30 ratio solid:solvent and 40% (v/v) ethanol concentration. For SFE best conditions were at 50°C and 300 bar pressures with 40% (v/v) ethanol concentration. Total extract yield, total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and antioxidant capacity of the extracts were measured. For both species the best results were obtained with UAE technique. Between the two halophytes, the C. maritimum extract was the richest one in antioxidant compounds (total phenol = 23.44 mg GAE s g dw -1); under the best conditions the S. europea extract allowed recording only 9.31 mg GAE s g dw -1 of total phenol.

“…These adaptations allow for the retention of water, protection of enzymatic machineries and maintenance of homeostasis (Flowers & Colmer 2008, Flowers et al 2010. A number of metabolites are biosynthesized by these plants (Aquino et al 2011, Maciel et al 2016, and many display bioactivity against oxidative stress, microbes, inflammations and tumors (Boughal leb & Denden 2011, Buhmann & Papenbrock 2013a, Rodrigues et al 2014, which emphasizes their potential to be used by the pharmaceutical industry.…”

The present study critically analyses peer-reviewed literature addressing the potential of halophytes to remediate nutrient-rich effluents from marine and coastal aquaculture, as well as the potential for their economic valorization, from human consumption to an untapped source of valuable secondary metabolites with pharmaceutical potential. The growing body of evidence discussed in this review supports the perspective that halophytes can become a new source of nutrition and other high-value compounds and be easily incorporated into saltwater-based integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems. In this context, halophytes act as extractors of dissolved inorganic nutrients, primarily nitrogen and phosphate, usually wasted in marine aquaculture farms. Phytoremediation using halophytes has been proven to be an efficient solution, and several ways exist to couple this practice with land-based marine aquaculture systems, namely through constructed wetlands and aquaponics. Focusing research on ecosystem-based approaches to aquaculture production will provide valuable data for producers and policy makers in order to improve decision making towards a sustainable development of this economic sector. Ecointensification of aquaculture through IMTA will potentially increase the overall productivity and resilience of the sector, and halophytes, in particular, are on the verge of becoming key players for the diversification and promotion of land-based IMTA. This work specifically documents the uncharted potential of Halimione portulacoides, an important halophyte in European salt marsh ecosystems, as a new extractive species for IMTA.

“…The economic attractiveness of a halophytic biofilter can also be upgraded by the use of salt-tolerant species with a commercial value [55]. Brown et al [2] studied the feasibility of wetlands equipped with different halophytes (Suaeda esteroa Ferren and Whitmore, Salicornia bigelovii Torr.…”

Many aquaculture systems generate high amounts of wastewater containing compounds such as suspended solids, total nitrogen and total phosphorus. Today, aquaculture is imperative because fish demand is increasing. However, the load of waste is directly proportional to the fish production. Therefore, it is necessary to develop more intensive fish culture with efficient systems for wastewater treatment. A number of physical, chemical and biological methods used in conventional wastewater treatment have been applied in aquaculture systems. Constructed wetlands technology is becoming more and more important in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) because wetlands have proven to be well-established and a cost-effective method for treating wastewater. This review gives an overview about possibilities to avoid the pollution of water resources; it focuses initially on the use of systems combining aquaculture and plants with a historical review of aquaculture and the treatment of its effluents. It discusses the present state, taking into account the load of pollutants in wastewater such as nitrates and phosphates, and finishes with recommendations to prevent or at least reduce the pollution of water resources in the future.
