Development of new economically feasible ecofriendly
products from agricultural wastes or byproducts for shrimp farm wastewater
treatment is the objective of our continued research. Ammonia is a nitro genous toxicant, which is commonly found in wastewater from shrimp
farms. In the present study, we explored the possibility of the use of simply
and inexpensively prepared bagasse products so that this abundant crop
byproduct could be used to remove ammonia from shrimp farm wastewater.
Bagasse, a natural highly fibrous lignocellulosic byproduct of sugarcane,
was converted into five different products. Experimental results have shown
that ammonia is efficiently removed from wastewater by four bagasse prod ucts with a dose of 1 to 6 g/L within 24 hours. The effect of bagasse products
on other water quality parameters and growth kinetics of biofilm bacteria
onto bagasse fiber have also been studied. Efficacies of products were
compared by using statistical analysis. Products developed from bagasse
are useful and economical. Water Environ. Res., 78, 938 (2006).
