Spirogyra cultured in fishpond wastewater for biomass generation

Abstract

Algae are aquatic organisms that can be found in a wide range of water bodies. Algae, a form of aquatic organism, is found in many different water types. Besides being relatively easy to maintain, algae are also numerous, making them a good choice for biomass production. The filamentous Spirogyra sp., a common green alga, tends to grow in freshwater. It is said that this macroalga has a wide variety of biotechnological applications. Research in this area highlights biomass's creation and builds on our understanding of the composition of macroalgae generated in fish farm wastewater. A study of Spirogyra in undisturbed fish farm wastewater was conducted in this study. Various algal species were evaluated for their qualities, including biomass yields and productivity, protein, fat, and carbohydrates. This investigation has confirmed that the nutrients in fish farm effluent are suitable for cultivating algal biomass. Protein, lipid, and carbohydrate levels in unaltered fish farm effluent were the highest for Spirogyra, with percentages of 19.03, 8.38, and 45.71%, respectively. Thus, it was the most suitable organism for various biomass-based applications and nutrient removal.

Impact of water temperature on the shipping of berried female broodstock (Macrobrachium rosenbergii): A study on survival, egg retention, hatching duration, and hatching success rate

“…Its intrinsic efficiency in terms of accelerated growth and commendable survival rates resonates with the core tenet of resource optimization, exemplifying the first pillar of the BCG model. By curbing wastage and enhancing yield sustainability, this alignment underpins economic and environmental viability (Pimpimol et al, 2020).…”

Found in plants, algae, and certain bacteria, these pigments are essential Ramaraj et al, 2013), not only for these organisms but also as a linchpin that supports life across multiple kingdoms in nature .…”

Potential of Pinewood Biochar as an Eco-Friendly Reducing Agent in Iron Ore Reduction

“…Although reducing energy consumption and gas emissions is regarded as a top priority, in recent years, achieving such reduction targets has been offset by the increasing scale of production, which, in turn, has resulted in an increase in CO 2 emissions worldwide. Therefore, as an alternative to fossil fuels, renewable biomass has been proposed as a viable source of heat and a reducing agent aimed at reducing CO 2 emissions. , Thus, achieving synergy between biomass-based and steelmaking sectors is crucial for achieving enhanced performance, efficiency, and sustainability. Due to its reliance on nonrenewable energy sources, such as coal, for iron reduction, the iron and steel manufacturing industry is regarded as a major contributor to global pollution.…”
