[Method] Taking C. carpiod as the research object, probiotics were supplemented in the fodder and water to study their effects on the growth of C. carpiod and water quality. [Result] Probiotics had promoting effects on the growth of C. carpiod and its optimum dosage was 6%. pH, ammonia nitrogen content and nitrite content in water body in experimental groups were all lower than those in control group. [Conclusion] Compound probiotics had a broad application foreground in the aquatic breeding industry.展开更多

The phreatic aquifer was revealed polluted by domestic disposals of the wastewaters in the urban zone. The average nitrate concentration in the groundwater of the east of the mioplioquaternary aquifer of Saddaguia (Sidi Bouzid) rose from 50 mg NO3- during 1996 to over 100 mg in 2003, which represents an increase of some 10 mg per year. Nitrate groundwater pollution during the period 1996-2003 was the result of the abusive use of fertilizers.In the cultivated zone, we must reduce the effects of the excessive use of the nitrogen fertilizers on the basis of monitoring soil once a year, managing water resources, rationalizing the use of the chemical substances. In urban zones, most of lost wells located in the perimeter reveal the gravity of the state of the aquifer. This last is organically polluted and requires an immediate action for the generalization of the purification network. We need to take into account the reality of under soil in all future planning's and arrangements. A scheme of sanitation seems necessary before all plans of arrangement. The extension of the sewer network must give the priority to the most vulnerable zones.展开更多

Glow discharge electrolysis of aqueous solution containing arsenite is studied under altemating current altemating current (50 Hz) discharge. It is found that arsenite [As(III)] get converted to arsenate [As(V)]. The yield is studied with various parameters such as discharge current, duration of discharge and pH (2-10). The results are interpreted on the basis of interaction of the OH and eaq (produced consequent to the interaction of H2O+ and e with water at the surface of the solution) with arsenite [As(III)] through the intermediate oxidation state, namely [As(IV)].展开更多
