A comprehensive review on the utilization of probiotics in aquaculture towards sustainable shrimp farming.

Probiotics in shrimp aquaculture have gained considerable attention as a potential solution to enhance production efficiency, disease management, and overall sustainability. Probiotics, beneficial microorganisms, have shown promising effects when administered to shrimp as dietary supplements or water additives. Their inclusion has been linked to improved gut health, nutrient absorption, and disease resistance in shrimp. Probiotics also play a crucial role in maintaining a balanced microbial community within the shrimp pond environment, enhancing water quality and reducing pathogen prevalence. This article briefly summarizes the many ways that probiotics are used in shrimp farming and the advantages that come with them. Despite the promising results, challenges such as strain selection, dosage optimization, and environmental conditions are carefully addressed for successful probiotic integration in shrimp aquaculture. The potential of probiotics as a sustainable and ecologically friendly method of promoting shrimp development and health while advancing environmentally friendly shrimp farming techniques is highlighted in this analysis. Further research is required to fully exploit probiotics' benefits and develop practical guidelines for their effective implementation in shrimp aquaculture.

Sustainable approach for the expulsion of metaldehyde: risk, interactions, and mitigation: a review.

All pests can be eliminated with the help of pesticides, which can be either natural or synthetic. Because of the excessive use of pesticides, it is harmful to both ecology and people's health. Pesticides are categorised according to several criteria: their chemical composition, method of action, effects, timing of use, source of manufacture, and formulations. Many aquatic animals, birds, and critters live in danger owing to hazardous pesticides. Metaldehyde is available in various forms and causes significant impact even when small amounts are ingested. Metaldehyde can harm wildlife, including dogs, cats, and birds. This review discusses pesticides, their types and potential environmental issues, and metaldehyde's long-term effects. In addition, it examines ways to eliminate metaldehyde from the aquatic ecosystem before concluding by anticipating how pesticides may affect society. The metal-organic framework and other biosorbents have been appropriately synthesized and subsequently represent the amazing removal of pesticides from effluent as an enhanced adsorbent, such as magnetic nano adsorbents. A revision of the risk assessment for metaldehyde residuals in aqueous sources is also attempted.

Progress in environmental monitoring and mitigation strategies for herbicides and insecticides: A comprehensive review.

Herbicides and insecticides are pervasively applied in agricultural sector to increase the yield by controlling or eliminating bug vermin and weeds. Although, resistance development occurs, direct and indirect impact on human health and ecosystem is clearly visible. Normally, herbicides and pesticides are water soluble in nature; accordingly, it is hard to decrease their deadliness and to dis-appear them from the environment. They are profoundly specific, and considered as poisonous to various peoples in agricultural and industrial work places. In order to substantially reduce the harmful impacts, it is crucial to thoroughly examine the detection and mitigation measures for these compounds. The primary objective of this paper is to provide an overview of various herbicide and pesticide detection techniques and associated remedial techniques. A short summary on occurrence and harmful effects of herbicides/insecticides on ecosystem has been included to the study. The conventional and advanced, rapid techniques for the detection of insecticides and herbicides were described in detail. A detailed overview on several mitigation strategies including advanced oxidation, adsorption, electrochemical process, and bioremediation as well as the mechanism behind the strategic approaches to reduce the effects of growing pesticide pollution has been emphasized. Regardless of the detection techniques and mitigation strategies, the recent advances employed, obstacles, and perspectives have been discussed in detail.

RSM-based modelling for predicting and optimizing the rheological and mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced laterized self-compacting concrete.

A sustainable method to reduce the use of natural resources and the negative effects of the concrete industry on the environment is to use waste lateritic aggregate in self-compacting concrete and evaluate its fresh, mechanical and durability characteristics. Using RSM's central composite design (CCD), Thirteen different SCC mixtures have been designed with varying input factor combinations (LA: 0-100%, PPF: 0-2%) and tested for eight responses (rheological properties, like slump flow, V-funnel time, and T500; mechanical properties, like compressive, split-tensile, and flexural strengths, and durability properties like drying shrinkage and rapid chloride penetration test). The analysis of variance (ANOVA) test was performed to determine the accuracy of the mathematical models developed following the experimental results. ANOVA was used to verify eight response models (seven quadratic and one linear). The inclusion of laterite aggregate has been found to linearly reduce the workability of fresh concrete. Self-compacting concrete will have a lower V-funnel value if any combination of components falls below these two limit values (31% LA and 1.12% PPF). The area bounded by the 760-mm contour line and the graph axes recorded the highest slump flow at (28% LA and 1.26% PPF). Similarly, SCC with a lower T500 value will be produced by any combination of components below these two limit values (25% LA and 1.11% PPF). By replacing 28.5% of the granite aggregate with laterite aggregate and adding 1.24% polypropylene fiber, the compressive strength of M30 grade self-compacting concrete increased by 12.33% after 28 days. A similar strength gain of 7.89% was seen in the splitting tensile by replacing 28% of the granite aggregate with laterite aggregate and adding 1.46% polypropylene fiber over the control mix, and a flexural strength gain of 14.46% was seen by replacing 31.4% of laterite aggregate and adding 1.2% polypropylene fiber, respectively. The low drying shrinkage values are related to a combination of LA concentration (34.4% replacement) and PPF (1.31%) and minimum chloride ingress is located in the region with a LA concentration (30.5% replacement) and a PPF content (1.26%), The projected optimal data were verified experimentally with an error rate of less than 5%. Thus, it is highly recommended that the created model be adequate and capable of optimizing both the experimental and analytical values. It is recommended that the utilization of 25% LA and 1% PPF in lateritic self-compacting concrete provides optimum outcomes for the construction industry in the field of civil engineering.

Fungal bioremediation approaches for the removal of toxic pollutants: Mechanistic understanding for biorefinery applications.

Pollution is a global menace that poses harmful effects on all the living ecosystems and to the Earth. As years pass by, the available and the looming rate of pollutants increases at a faster rate. Although many treatments and processing strategies are waged for treating such pollutants, the by-products and the wastes or drain off generated by these treatments further engages in the emission of hazardous waste. Innovative and long-lasting solutions are required to address the urgent global issue of hazardous pollutant remediation from contaminated environments. Myco-remediation is a top-down green and eco-friendly tool for pollution management. It is a cost-effective and safer practice of converting pernicious substances into non-toxic forms by the use of fungi. But these pollutants can be transformed into useable products along with multiple benefits for the environment such as sequestration of carbon emissions and also to generate high valuable bioactive materials that fits as a sustainable economic model. The current study has examined the possible applications of fungi in biorefineries and their critical role in the transformation and detoxification of pollutants. The paper offers important insights into using fungal bioremediation for both economically and environmentally sound solutions in the domain of biorefinery applications by combining recent research findings.
