Bacillus aryabhattai TFG5-mediated synthesis of humic substances from coir pith wastes. [PDF]
Abstract Background Humic substances (HS) form the largest proportion among all the constituents of soil organic matter and are a key component of the terrestrial ecosystem. HS plays a multifunctional role in the environment by controlling the biogeochemical carbon cycle, providing nutrients and bio-stimulants for plant ...

Unveiling the microbial dynamics in vermicomposting with coir pith as earthworm substrate. [PDF]
This study explored the impact of incorporating coir pith, a byproduct of the coconut industry, into the vermicomposting substrate of Eudrilus eugeniae earthworms. The groups were compared based on their diets: cow manure only or cow manure mixed with varying amounts of coir pith.

Enumeration and Characterization of Microorganisms in Raw Coir Pith and Coir Pith Dumped Soil [PDF]
Coir pith is being considered as the reject generated during the extraction of coir fibre from coconut husks. It is a light weight and fluffy material with dusts and bits of fibres. The coir pith has many undesirable components and hence it does not carry any value addition.

Chromium adsorption on coir pith charcoal from tannery wastewater
Emission of high chrome tanning wastewater is catastrophic for the environment. In this work, the effectiveness of coir pith charcoal is stated for the removal of chromium from tannery wastewater. The charcoal yield from the coir pith was 2.4%. The prepared charcoal was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The efficiency of

Assessment of soil properties from coir pith waste dump yard [PDF]
Abstract The research region, Kallipatti, is surrounded by coconut farms, coir pith companies, and other businesses, and people report that water has become their primary concern in the last three years. Skin and eye allergies, as well as lung and throat infections, have been on the rise. Coir pith degrades slowly and can be found in the

Synthesis of Nanocellulose from Coir Pith
Coir pith is lignocellulosic in nature and abundantly available by-product of the coir industry. It is a pollutant as it is resistant to biodegradation in the environment. It is mainly composed of cellulose (28%), hemi cellulose (9.5%) and lignin (31%). In this study, cellulose was extracted from the coir pith, and treated generally for the production

Treated Coconut Coir Pith as Component of Cementitious Materials [PDF]
The presented paper deals with utilization of raw and treated coir pith as potential component of cementitious composites. The studied material is coir pith originating from a coconut production. Its applicability as cement mixture component was assessed in terms of the physical properties of concrete containing different amount of coir pith.

X ray Diffraction (XRD) Analysis of Coir Pith Concrete
The usage of waste product in concrete decreases the major issue of dumping problems in the society and as well as its economical also. Coir pith is one among that product from coconut industry. In this examination accentuation was made on the practicality of utilization of coir pith as a fractional substitution of regular sand in concrete.

UTILISATION OF COIR PITH AS MANURE FOR GROUNDNUT [PDF]
A field experiment was carried out to evaluate the usefulness of Coir Pith (a waste from the coconut husk in coir fibre industry) as manure for groundnut crop in sandy loam soils of Agricultural Research Station, Allarnagar. Groundnut. CO 1, was sown with 12 treatments consisting of, absolute control, and NPK alone and in combination with raw coir pith
