Striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) is freshwater fish that is raising mainly in the Mekong Delta. The research was implemented at the Model Farm (College of Aquaculture and Fisheries), Can Tho University during 6 months from May to November of 2016 and aimed to evaluate the water quality between two treatments of feed in the pangasius production for proposing a better environmental management method. The treatment 1 (control treatment, CT) has two ponds used feed without adding phytase and treatment 2 (experiment treatment, ET) includes two ponds used feed with adding phytase. The results showed that the temperature, pH, DO, TSS, COD, BOD, N-NO2-, N-NO3-, TKN, TAN were not significantly different (p>0.05) between the CT and ET ponds. At the experiment pond (EP), the factors (TP: 2.28 mg/L; P-PO43-: 1.24 mg/L) which has P release to the environment are less than control pond (CP) (TP: 2.62 mg/L; P-PO43-: 2.13 mg/L). These results suggested that the addition of phytase in feed could contribute to reducing the nutrient to the water body of pangasius pond. Cá tra (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) là loài thủy sản nước ngọt được nuôi chủ yếu ở các tỉnh Đồng bằng sông Cửu Long. Nghiên cứu được thực hiện trong 6 tháng từ tháng 05 – 11/2016 tại Trang trại mẫu đặt tại Khoa Thủy sản, Trường Đại học Cần Thơ nhằm đánh giá chất lượng nước giữa 2 nghiệm thức thức ăn trong giai đoạn nuôi cá thịt để đề xuất biện pháp quản lý chất lượng nước ao nuôi tốt hơn. Nghiệm thức 1 (nghiệm thức đối chứng, CT) gồm 2 ao nuôi sử dụng thức ăn không bổ sung enzyme phytase, nghiệm thức 2 (nghiệm thức thí nghiệm, ET) gồm 2 ao nuôi sử dụng thức ăn có bổ sung enzyme phytase. Kết quả thí nghiệm cho thấy giá trị nhiệt độ, pH, DO, TSS, COD, BOD, H2S, N-NO2-, N-NO3-, TKN, TAN ở mức phù hợp cho ao đối chứng (CT). Tại ao thí nghiệm (ET) (TP:2,28 mg/L; P-PO43-: 1,24 mg/L) lượng P thải ra ít hơn so với ao CT (TP: 2,62 mg/L; P-PO43-: 2,13 mg/L) chứng tỏ việc bổ sung enzyme phytase trong thức ăn đã góp phần làm giảm lượng lân thải ra môi trường nước trong nuôi cá tra.

This study aims to simulate pollutant runoff into Lake Biwa using the Macro Model and examine the runoff characteristics of pollutants from urban nonpoint sources. As a result of the simulations of all rivers flowing into Lake Biwa, the characteristics of urban nonpoint source pollution and the basic units of urban nonpoint pollutants in the Lake Biwa basin became clear. It was shown that the control of pollutant runoff from nonpoint sources during storm events was significant in order to protect the water quality of Lake Biwa. From these results, valuable data concerning the environmental management of the Lake Biwa basin was obtained.

Upgrading of the national standardization system creates favorable conditions for support and normal promotion of integrated environmental standards as a toolbox for control of the process of minimization of adverse impacts with their concurrent accounting and possible redistribution among the environment elements, i.e. air, water bodies, and soils. In the Russian practice of environmental protection there is no any objective toolbox for comprehensive assessment of the current activities’ negative impact. In outlook adoption of the negative impact minimization mechanism is most probable through the many-year benchmarking with European expertise based on the revealing of cause-eff ect relations in terms of «relative improvement of technique against the attained quality of environment (objectives)». Water bodies are subjected both to direct and indirect negative impact. There is no one method for assessment of water bodies’ environmental safety as a basis for adoption of adequate solutions in water sector. The developed standards on the basis of water/economic activities without considerable emissions to air and to soils propose a toolbox to secure uniform quantitative assessment both the techniques negative impact through assessment of their waste water quality and assessment of water quality of the receiving water body. The developed toolbox provides detection of the «negative impact – water body water quality» causeeffect relations. Integrated criteria proposed in the standards provide ranking and classifying of negative impact objects, detection and identification of the national water/economic best available techniques, implementation of the combined approach in the process of adoption of integrated environmental permissions.

Catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) is a freshwater fish that has been produced in the form of a filet. One of the problems in producing good catfish fillet is compactness and brightness of catfish farmed meat. This research aimed to get feed formulation as enhancer  meat quality of striped catfish with added Cinnamon leaves flour (Cinnamomum burmannii)  and used shrimp head meal. A Fish with a weight of  208.98±25.76 g reared in 12 floating nets cage (2x1x1.5 m3) with density of 15 fish/nets for 60 days. As treatment, fish were fed with feed contains 1% cinnamon leaves,  45% shrimp head meal, and combined of cinnamon leaves and shrimp head meal, and as control used feed were formulated without cinnamon leaves and shrimp head meal. Fish were fed 2 times a daily with feeding rate 3.5% of average body weight of<br />fish. The test parameters observed were physical, chemical and organoleptic test of catfish meat. The results showed feed with contains cinnamon leaves and shrimp head meal could decrease level of body fat 14.7% compared than control (p&lt;0.05). Feed with used cinnamon leaves and shrimp head meal gave a texture of<br />fillet fish more compact,  elastic and color of fillet fish white.

The water quality of the Okomu Wetland was evaluated using the Water Quality Index (WQI) technique which provides a number that expresses overall water quality of a water body or water sample at a particular time. Sampling of physicochemical parameters spanned two years covering the wet and dry seasons and the water quality data were obtained from 10 sampling locations; Ponds 36, 52, 54, 61, 64, 90, 94, Arhakhuan Stream, Okomu River (Agekpukpu) and Okomu River (Iron bridge) all within the Okomu National Park. Parameters such as Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Turbidity, pH, Electrical conductivity (EC), Chlorine (Cl), Nitrate (NO3), Sulphate (SO4), Sodium (Na), Magnesium (Mg), (Iron) Fe, Chromium (Cr), Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn), Lead (Pb), and Nikel (Ni) were used to compute WQI and the values obtained for the wetland ranged between 34.36 and 167.28. The Index shows that pond 36, 52 and 54 are unfit for drinking with values between 103.86 and 167.28; ponds 61 and 64 are of the very poor quality category with WQI values of 95.19 and 92.44 respectively, Pond 90, pond 94, Arhakhuan Stream and Okomu River (Agekpukpu) are of poor quality and WQI values between and 53.58 and 73.15. Whereas, the Okomu River (Iron bridge) is within the good water quality (34.36) category. The Okomu River by Iron bridge is of good quality rating while other sampled points were of poor, very poor or unfit for drinking though these water bodies are mostly free from anthropogenic activities because of the conservative status of the study area. A major source of pollution within the wetland is surface runoff. The water quality of the wetland may not be suitable for man’s consumption especially pond water which are majorly impacted by runoff, yet very important for the survival and sustenance of the forest animals and plants. The water quality index (WQI) interprets physicochemical characteristics of water by providing a value which expresses the overall water quality and thus, reveals possible pollution problems of a water body. It turns complex water quality data into information that is easily understandable and usable by scientists, researchers and the general public.

The Noyyal River is a tributary of river Cauvery has been one of the most predominant and important rivers of Tamil Nadu. Unfortunately, certain stretches of river Noyyal are polluted due to effluent discharge from the industries and domestic sewage. The effective water environmental management strategies required to be implemented in this river to upgrade the water quality and to ensure sustainable development in the region. The aim of this work was to provide a basis for water environmental management in process of making important decisions. In this study WASP (Water Quality Simulation Program) is used as a model to identify the processes that underlie river water quality problems in a basin. WASP was recommended by EPA used as water quality model. Simulated values of Nitrate (NO3), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Alkalinity and pH demonstrated the accuracy of the model and despite a significant data shortage in the study area. WASP model was found to be an acceptable tool for the assessment of water quality.
