Physical, Chemical and Biological Parameters for Compost Maturity Assessment: A Review

The regency of Barru is a potential region for Tiger prawn cultured in the South Sulawesi Province. Generally, thisaquaculture activity is based on the application of intensively cultivated pattern by using artificial feed as a sourceof the prawn foremost meal. Some research suggested that an intensive pattern of prawn cultured generatessome waste products that are significantly to affect such physical, chemical as well as biological parameters ofcoastal water condition. That the change in environmental quality of coastal water will affect commercial tigerprawn that is the role of water to support sustainable cultured through its carrying capacity. This research wasaimed to analyze physical, chemical and biological parameters of coastal water and to ensure its carrying capacityin maintaining commercially tiger prawn cultured. The results are expected to be some more valuable referencesfor the benefit of the development of tiger prawn aquaculture. The research was conducted in the coastal waterfrom June to December 2007. Observation was made in order to find out physical, chemical, and biological factorsthroughout the stations (i.e., sea, coastal, pond, estuaria and the outlet of the farm stations). To examine thephysical, chemical and biological parameter of spatial characteristic, a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) wasused. The used approaches to determine carrying capacity were based on capacity and receivance ability ofwaters and oxygen content. The results of this research show that the entirely physical and chemical parametersof coastal water of the Barru regency were exceeded that of the requirement thresholds of the total suspendedsediment (TSS) and the chemical oxygen demand (COD). A spatial distribution of physical and chemicalcharacteristics was measured high by TSS and COD, as well as the level of water turbidity, all at the outflow ofestuaria and the Outlet; meanwhile, the value of NO2, Phosphate, and NH3 substances was recorded high at thepond. A biological parameter was characterized by the existence of phytoplankton through its density and abundanceas well. Those of the Class Bacyllariophyceae was dominantly encountered to attain at the top as high as 75.2% inspecies composition, followed by Cyanophyceae 9.3% at the second, and the rest Chlorophyceae 8.9% andDyanophyceae and Euglenophyceae 5.9% and 0.7% respectively. Based on the stationed preferences, those in thecoastal, the pond, and the Outlet were dominated by Bacyllariophyceae, whereas the estuaria by Cyanophyceae.The Shannon’s index of diversity (H’) of the entirely stations was varied among 1.01 – 2.12 that the lowest one at theestuaria and the highest at the sea. The coastal water has its carrying capacity to support the excess of 506,437kg organic waste substances based on the necessity of oxygen content suspending in the water column. Therefore,the given pond is feasible to develop to reach as much as 219 Ha intensive ponds, or 481 Ha semi-intensive pondson the other way.

Abstract: Groundwater is one of the earth’s most widely distributed and most important natural resources. Groundwater exists, wherever water penetrates beneath the surface. The rocks beneath the surface are permeable enough to transmit water, and at places, the rate of infiltration is so sufficient that the rocks are saturated to an appreciable thickness. This water may be fresh or brackish in quality. As the fresh water constitutes very little quantity of the total water available, we must think as to how best we can exploit it, and utilize it. With the growth of population, today in many of the places water has become a critical source. In many places it is dwindling both in quality and quantity, creating problems for the communities involved. Water Quality Index indicates the quality of drinking water by assessing physical, chemical and biological parameters of water. India had the most studies, with 177 articles, followed by China, Brazil and the United States. This four countries together published 57% of studies on WQI. Groundwater quality implies the level of concentration of different constituents of water which is ultimately described if it is suitable or not for drinking or other purpose such as irrigation. There are mainly three types of constituents or parameters for describing quality of groundwater as physiological, chemical and biological parameters. These parameters are described below: EC ,TDS, K, Na, Ca ,Mg ,TH, Co3, HCO3, Cl, SO4 ,and also we determine some trace element such as Copper (Cu) ,Lead (Pb), Manganese (Mn) ,Nickel (Ni) ,Iron (Fe), Zinc (Zn).

Abstract Improper solid waste management in Kano Metropolis, Nigeria has become a serious threat to human health and ground water quality. Groundwater monitoring should be conducted to assess the groundwater contamination, especially originated from leachate generated from the dumpsites. Most of the dumpsites are located nearby water body that subsequently affecting the quality of the water for human purposes. This study aims to investigate the relationships between different physical-chemical and biological parameters during the two seasons (dry and wet seasons) in Kano Metropolis area as well as to identify the sources of variation during the two seasons. The level of some physical-chemical and biological parameters of the groundwater (wells) and dump sites were assessed (i.e. temperature, pH, conductivity, suspended solids, turbidity, hardness colour, e-coli and coliform). Mean concentration of some physical-chemical and biological parameters except that of temperature, colour, pH and total dissolved solids were found to be above the acceptable limit of the National and International standard of drinking water quality, NESREA and WHO. The sources and variations of the samples results were tested using statistical analysis. The water samples show a considerable level of pollution. The analysis of the groundwater and that of dump sites reveals no significant difference in the parameters measured. It is therefore recommended that the water from this source should be monitored and treated properly before consumption.

To date, compost maturation monitoring is carried out by physical-chemical and microbiological analysis, which could be considered an overweening consumption of time and products. Nowadays, spectroscopy is chosen as a simple tool for monitoring compost maturity. In the present investigation, spectroscopy analysis was performed in the interest of corroborating the compost maturity. This goal was achieved by using the X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction analysis showed the presence of the cellulose fraction in compost samples. At the same time, the intensity of pics decreased depending on composting time, thus proving that there was organic matter degradation. Infrared and scanning electron microscopy analysis allow for confirming these results. The correlation between spectroscopies analysis and physical-chemical properties was employed by partial least squares-regression (PLS-R) model. PLS-R model was applied to build a model to predict the compost quality depending on the composting time, the results obtained show that all the parameters analysis are well predicted. The current study proposed that final compost was more stabilized compared with the initial feedstock mixture. Ultimately, spectroscopy techniques used allowed us to confirm the physical-chemical results obtained, and both of them depict maturity and stability of the final compost, thus proving that spectral techniques are more reliable, fast, and promising than physical-chemical analyses.
