Waste plastics are harmful, toxic, and non-biodegradable. Environmental impacts of waste plastics are raised concern about all over the world for safe and friendly environment. Due to dense population and environmental effects of the major city in the world dumping, incineration and land filling are faced difficulties and challenges. At this circumstances vast of waste plastics are remained vul...

Problem: The Dutch aquaculture industry is based on fish production in recirculating aquaculture systems. Enforced by legislation the fish farmers have to reduce the waste discharge and are not allowed to discharge farm effluents on the surface waters. The government expresses waste discharge in inhabitant equivalents (I.E = average daily waste production of 1 person during 1 year, expressed in...

A 10 week feeding trial was carried out to evaluate the replacement value of hatchery wastes for fish meal in the diet of laying Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica). 108 female Japanese quails (36 per treatment) were randomly allocated into 3 dietary treatments A, B and C which are fish meal (FM), whole hatchery waste meal (WHWM) and shelless hatchery waste meal (SHWM) based diets respe...

The paper considers one of possible options for the waste-free processing dumped masses nickel slags, accumulated over years operation some enterprises. This process includes use hydroand pyrometallurgical processing, which results in three products: iron sulfate, ferrosilicon with a small admixture aluminum, and slag from smelting. has hardness 7-7.5 Mohs can be used as an abrasive powder sand...

The food processing industry is very diverse. The diversity of the industry is apparent not only by the vast array of final products but also by the waste generated. Food processing waste, though not considered to be a health hazard, can be formidable in the quantities generated. Even the smallest seasonal plant is capable of producing waste loads equivalent to a population of 15,000-25,000 peo...

Sea-food processing wastes and underutilized species of fish are a potential source of functional and bioactive compounds. A large number of bioactive substances can be produced through enzyme-mediated hydrolysis. Suitable enzymes and the appropriate bioreactor system are needed to incubate the waste materials. Membrane separation is a useful technique to extract, concentrate, separate or fract...
