Abstract

The goal of this study was to investigate the bacterial community associated with biogas production from food waste and rumen content. Anaerobic mono-digestion and co-digestion were performed using mixture design within Design Expert, resulting in 100 experimental runs. Parameters such as food waste and rumen content, water content, temperature, pH, number of digester agitation per day and retention time were varied during the anaerobic digestion processes. Classical microbiological techniques were used to isolate and identify strict anaerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria from the food waste and rumen content before and after anaerobic digestion. Sixteen bacterial species belonging to 12 different generae were isolated and identified from the food waste, rumen content and composite digestates obtained from the 100 bio-digesters. These generae included Acetobacterium, Bacteroides, Clostridium, Enterobacter, Escherichia, Lactobacillus, Pseudomonas, Ruminococcus, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Syntrophomonas and Syntrophobacter. With the exception of Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas sp., all other bacterial species identified in the substrates were also found in samples of the composite digestates, suggesting that they may have played important roles in the anaerobic digestion process inside the 100 bio-digesters. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the microbial community structure and function during biogas production from food waste and rumen content. The results could contribute to the development of more efficient and sustainable biogas production processes.

Abstract

Waste management, an integral aspect of modern life, exerts a profound influence on both public health and the environment. While existing research explores the environmental impact of various waste management practices, there is a paucity of studies investigating the direct health effects on humans from these practices. This article aims to address this gap by examining the intricate interplay between specific waste management strategies, such as open burning or landfill leachate management, and their potential to cause respiratory illnesses, birth defects, or other health problems in urban areas. Drawing from existing knowledge and recent research, it underscores the imperative of adopting an integrated waste management approach that harmonizes environmental preservation and health considerations. Furthermore, the review spotlights emerging technologies and innovative methodologies that hold promise in mitigating potential health hazards associated with conventional waste management practices. It accentuates the intricate connection between waste management and human health, underscoring the need for holistic strategies that encompass both community welfare and environmental sustainability. This paper advocates for sustainable waste management approaches that not only alleviate health concerns but also promote resource recovery and community engagement. Policymakers, urban planners, and stakeholders are encouraged to collaborate in the adoption of effective waste management methods that safeguard both the environment and human health. By recognizing the intrinsic link between environmental and health issues, a harmonized approach can be forged to address them.

Abstract

The study was conducted to investigate carbon stock, flux, and sequestration potential as well as the response of groundnut (yield) to different fortification approaches. A greenhouse experiment was conducted using four treatment combinations, fortified biochar with T. albuminosus (B + T), biochar (B), T. albuminosus, and control laid in a Complete Randomized Design (CRD). The result showed increased carbon sequestration, stock, and a subsequent decrease in carbon emission in treatment B + T relative to other treatments. Untreated samples recorded the lowest values with 3.69 g kg-1 sequestered carbon 24.97 kg ha- stock 4.92% carbon emission and a net flux of -20.70. The highest groundnut yield was also recorded in the B + T treatment with a value of 1131.10 kg ha-1. However, biochar treatment recorded the highest biomass and stover yield 5.62 t ha-1 and 3.82 t ha-1 respectively. In conclusion, the Fortification of biochar with T. albuminosus proved efficient in improving carbon sequestration, increasing carbon stock, and reducing emission as well as other nutrients in soils under cultivation. Also, using B + T as an amendment under optimal growth conditions is recommended for better groundnut production. The study's constraints lie in its execution within controlled greenhouse settings, potentially limiting its applicability to real-world field conditions. Thus, caution should be exercised when extending these findings to field applications, ensuring the validation of the approach's effectiveness.

Abstract

This research aims to formulate a strategy for sustainably empowering fishing communities. This research uses a qualitative approach, namely research that emphasizes more aspects of an in-depth understanding of a research object. This research was conducted on Makassar Island, Baubau City Indonesia, where most of the population has a livelihood as fishermen. This research uses informants from fishermen, community leaders, and local government officials. To obtain these informants, purposive techniques are used, where informants are selected based on their ability to provide in-depth information. This study used several data collection techniques, namely observation, interviews, documentation, and focused group discussion. Data analysis in this study uses SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. The results of the study obtained several formulations of strategies for empowering fishing communities as follows: first, community-based empowerment of fishing communities; second, strengthening fishermen institutions; third, capital access development; fourth, mastery of fishing technology; and fifth, improve the technical capabilities of professional fisheries extension workers. This study recommends that the empowerment of fishing communities in Makassar Island should be directed at community-based empowerment. This approach sees that various social problems that exist in the fishing community are not only caused by problems that arise in the fishing community internally but also caused by various structural problems. This approach is also very aware of the importance of capacity building in fishing communities to increase the strength and independence of fishing communities.

Abstract

This research aims to determine barriers to the expansion of women-owned businesses in rural communities of South Africa. To collect data for the research, a quantitative research approach was adopted. The research focused on 250 female business owners in the northern KZN rural regions of Umzinyakude, Uthukela, and Ugu. According to the survey, the primary barriers to developing women-owned businesses in rural communities are financial restraints, an absence of formal education, and inadequate facilities. These hurdles, however, may be overcome by women businesses being entrepreneurs in rural South African communities. Eliminating these barriers might empower women entrepreneurs and drive growth in the economy in rural communities, lowering poverty and improving rural people's living conditions. In light of these findings, the research suggests a variety of measures, including different financing methods, focused training and schooling programs, and the development of infrastructure to help women-owned businesses flourish in rural communities. Further research should investigate more issues like cultural as well as social barriers, an absence of accessibility to marketplaces and information, and legal and regulatory obstacles that prevent women from starting business entities in rural communities.

Abstract

Implementation of the fourteen elements of process safety management (PSM) helps to build a good safety culture in the organization. The new three-dimensional approach, which consists of good safety practices, safety precautions, and frequent checking of the process equipment and its devices has been applied to the various elements of the process safety management. The elements of process safety management are six, four, and three are good safety practices, safety precautions, and frequent checking of process equipment and its devices but one of the elements is the combination of all the three-dimensional approach, which is a trade secret, which insists that all the people in the organization should follow all the documented procedures from two to thirteen elements of the process safety management, the controlled copy should only be used inside the company premises. We have taken secondary published data for assessing the deviations of the three-dimensional safety approach for the human failures in the pharmaceutical industry, which has led to various incidents/accidents from October 2017 to September 2021. The deviation, which we have observed for the good safety practices, safety precautions, and frequent checking of process equipment and its devices was ten, nine, and one numbers before implementation of the process safety management. After the implantation of the process safety management, the incidents were reduced to three numbers from January 2022 to August 2023, in which deviation has been found in the two and one for the good safety practices and safety precautions.

Abstract

Bangladesh ranks seventh on the Global Climate Risk Index 2021, which identifies the nations most susceptible to natural catastrophes, demonstrating how sensitive the country is to both climate change and natural disasters. Millions of people are forced to migrate to neighboring cities and urban areas in search of work and a living each year as a result of climate change and natural disasters such as river bank erosion, salinity intrusion, floods, cyclones, and landslides in Bhola, Khulna, Bagerhat, Patuakhali, and Gaibandha. Urban life is strained by this influx, especially in terms of housing, water supply, and sanitation. Many of these individuals also seek overseas employment as a means of survival. While numerous organizations, including government institutions, are working to promote safe and regular international migration and overseas employment, a portion of these individuals fall prey to labor trafficking due to a lack of information, monitoring, and services from the administration. Additionally, communities in climate-risk areas are ultimately forced to choose between internal and international migration due to the sluggish adoption of climate-resilient agricultural methods and technologies, as well as the dearth of technical and vocational education options. For these regions of significant natural disasters and climate change, the government has to provide more secure migration policies and encourage productive remittance investment.

Abstract

This study aimed at the synthesis and characterization of briquette from Pinus patula saw dust using different binders. The effects of particle size and type of binder on the fuel qualities of the briquette were investigated. The bulk density of biomass causes handling, storage, and transportation problems that limit its large application. Densification of biomass into briquettes can solve these problems. The experimental results indicate that briquette produced from waste paper, fruit waste, cow dung, and starch flour binders has higher calorific value, higher fixed carbon, and lower ash content. Whereas, molasses and wood ash binders decreased the calorific value and fixed carbon and increased the ash content of the briquette. As a result, a maximum calorific value of 6596 cal/g, fixed carbon content of 62.6%, and ash content of 3.66% are obtained using waste paper.  The calorific value of 6232 cal/g, fixed carbon of 48.74%, and ash content of 3.33% was obtained using fruit waste while the calorific value of 6194 cal/g, fixed carbon content of 59.94 %, and ash content of 5.35% was observed when cow dung is used. When starch flour is used, a calorific value of 6170 cal/g, fixed carbon content of 54.63%, and ash content of 2.63 was obtained. Therefore, waste paper, fruit waste, cow dung, and starch flour are promising binders that improve the fuel qualities of biomass briquettes.

Abstract

The high cost of treated water makes most rural communities resort to readily available sources that are normally of low quality, which exposes them to waterborne diseases in the process. In the present study, various doses of baobab (Adansonia digitata) leaf powder coagulant (i.e., 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3g per 50 mL turbid water) were added to the surface water sample collected. It was found that increasing the coagulant doses results in either a decrease or increase in the measured parameters, such as pH, turbidity, and electrical conductivity (EC). At constant 30 min coagulation time, pH and EC of the turbid water samples taken were within WHO standards. However, the labeled sample fed with 0.3g of baobab leaf powder coagulant gave the lowest turbidity of 78.7 NTU. A reduction in final turbidity is a clear indication of the coagulation capabilities of baobab leave powder. With this study, baobab leave (as a potential coagulant) is a new addition to the literature, apart from its seed and pulp which have been experimented with previously. Natural coagulants contain some chemicals whose effect on the resulting treated water needs to be examined. If need be, an additional treatment unit must be set up to adsorb or remove those contaminants from the water before proper use.
