Abattoir Wastewater Irrigation Increases the Availability of Nutrients and Influences on Plant Growth and Development

This study evaluated the effects of abattoir wastewater irrigation on plant growth and development. The soils used in this study were collected from Primo Smallgoods Abattoir (Port Wakefield, South Australia) at different sites such as currently irrigated (CI), currently not irrigated (CNI) and soil outside the irrigation area as control (CTRL). A completely randomised block design was employed...

Soil and Soilless Cultivation Influence on Nutrients and Heavy Metals Availability in Soil and Plant Uptake

Nowadays, most countries especially in arid and dry climate zones had experienced the water scarcity problems. In the agricultural sector, freshwater play a major role to supply water for the plant grows. Thus, the reuse of wastewater as alternative water resources in agricultural is highly recommended. However, wastewater is always contaminated despite after secondary treatment. Along benefici...

Recovery of Essential Plant Nutrients from

Essential plant nutrients contained in residues and wastes generated during biofuel processing can be recovered for further production of bioenergy biomass. The objective of this study was to determine the relative agronomic efficiency of “processed” biofuel residual (PBR). Liquid biofuel residual was “processed” by precipitating phosphate and ammonium in the residual with magnesium into a stru...

Efficiency of Plant Nasturtium aquaticum for Biological Ramoval of the Nutrients of Rainbow Trout Pond Wastewater

 In this study, an indoor fish farm was selected to assess the biological treatment of the waste effluents. The purification lagoon surface was completely grown by target species, Nasturtium aquaticum. Six stations were selected as the water source, the farm outlet, the starting point of outlet water to the lagoon and three next other sampling stations. The averages of many chemical parameters ...
