For much of the Caribbean, plastic pollution and great Atlantic Sargassum belt has led to significant regional loss. To elevate these problematic areas, we present a novel calcium alginate bioplastic process from lens techno-economic life cycle assessments.

In this study, the Acid Black 1 dye containing effluent collected from a dyeing unit was examined with the alginate extracted from the marine brown algae, Sargassum sp. for its removal. Batch experiments were carried out using standard Jar test apparatus. Fourier Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) techniques were used to characterize the raw algin...

In this study, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were biosynthesized with the use of an extract derived from seaweed (Sargassum sp.) and used as a sorbent for removal Cr(III) ions wastewater. The biosorption properties itself well post-extraction residue investigated comparison. ZnO NPs characterized UV–vis, ICP-OES, FTIR, XRD, SEM techniques. sorption capacity (bio)sorbents was function conta...

Tilapia have high resistance to various diseases, tolerance low and temperatures, efficiency in feed fast growth, recently growing saline water with salinity up 20 ppt. The addition of Sargassum extract into the is an alternative maintain quality digestibility fish body. sp, has a fairly complete nutritional content, it can certainly growth effect when added feed, according previous research. c...

• A cascade biorefinery process for Sargassum muticum ( Sm ) was proposed. Dried sap (2% of raw material) enriched in K and stimulated stem root growth. Similar alginate, phenolics fucoidan yields properties to those from unpressed Sm. Methane production autohydrolysis solids increased by 55-76% compared the use The at a maximum 150 °C optimal different products. Marine macroalgae represent an ...
