Aquaculture is the fastest‐growing food‐producing sector globally, yet intensive farming in China has led to severe ecological degradation of coastal marine pastures, including habitat loss, disease outbreaks, and dysbiosis of cultured species. Probiotics (beneficial live microorganisms) and prebiotics (non‐digestible substrates that promote beneficial

Removal of pharmaceuticals in conventionally treated wastewater by a polishing moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) with intermittent feeding [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated that aerobic moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBRs) remove pharmaceuticals better than activated sludge. Thus we used a MBBR system to polish the effluent of an activated sludge wastewater treatment plant. To overcome that effluent contains insufficient organic matter to sustain enough biomass, the biofilm was ...

Larval rearing in echinoculture still has room for optimization in order to reach economical soundness and commercial‐scale production. One of the key factors in larval feeding is to provide larvae the necessary energy for metamorphosis into juveniles. Paracentrotus lividus (Lamarck, 1816) is a meroplanktonic species with a planktotrophic larval stage,

Upgrading of a wastewater treatment plant with a hybrid moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR)
The wastewater treatment plant of Porto Tolle (RO, Italy) was originally projected for 2200 person equivalent (p.e.) and it was made of a pumping station, an activated sludge oxidation tank (395 m3), a settler (315 m3), and two sludge drying beds. Other units were not yet in use in 2008: a fine screen, a sand and grit removal unit, a new settler (570 ...

ABSTRACT Activities associated with illegal mining, ‘galamsey’, often result in significant environmental degradation, particularly to water bodies. In the case of River Oda, like all other affected areas in Ghana, galamsey operations contribute to the pollution of the water body with some heavy metals such as mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As)
