“…Finally, at the end of all runs, the cells were harvested by centrifugation, washed thrice with distilled water to remove salts and dried at about 55°C for 12 h. The powdered samples were used in the analysis of total protein contents according to Kjeldhal method, and total lipid content by extraction with a chloroformmethanol solution 2:1 (v/v) [30].…”

Aquaculture ecosystem assessment is a major key for successful aquaculture Planning. There are many aquaculture farms constructed in Egypt, but because of the non-sufficient studies about the environmental conditions of aquaculture ecosystem assessment, many projects achieved negative results and had low economical returns. The present study was conducted to evaluate the aquaculture ecosystem assessment of irrigation water of El-Mahmoudia Canal, Alexandria, Egypt. The result indicated that temperature (24.65±0.4°C), DO (5.38±0.20mg/l), COD (14.40±4.5mg/l) and BOD (2.86±0.20 mg/l) were in the optimum range for O. niloticus. Chlorophyll a, b and carotenoids were 10.449±0.953, 4.685±0.704 and 2.374±0.054 μg/g, respectively. The biochemical composition of plankton showed that protein, lipid and carbohydrate were 37.7±3.39 %, 16.33±0.85%, and 11.23±2.63%, respectively. Moreover, SFA, MUFA and PUFA were 70.29±4.07%, 11.172±0.132 %, and 18.55±0.525 % of total fatty acids, respectively. Zooplankton community showed that rotifers and copepods configured the main bulk of zooplankton community (95.9% to the total zooplankton community). These conditions are considered the ideal recommended conditions for cultivation of Oreochromis niloticus that started with 100,000 fingerlings (distributed as 4.76 fish/m 3 of earth pond) for six months with 82% survival rate with final yield of 21.3 ton/1.6 hectare.

“…Spirulina Platensis species for domestic wastewater treatment was published in the year 1974 (Kosaric et al, 1974). Spirulina Platensis species were grown on large scale using secondary effluent of domestic wastewater treatment plant.According to Olguin et al, (2001) Spirulina Platensis has potential to reduce BOD of high carbon containing wastewater due to its mixotropic nature. The present study was concluded that the Spirulina platensis was cultivated on different concentration of dairy effluent yield better growth than control set and very efficient in COD/Phosphate/EC removal in all concentration.…”

Industrial pollution has been and continues to be a major factor causing the degradation of the environment around us, affecting the water we use, the air we breathe and the soil we live on. The exponential increase in industrialization. Spirulina Platensis cultivation in wastewater system is applicable for highly populated countries like India where waste is generated in high quantities and pose environmental problem. Spirulina Platensis species for domestic wastewater treatment was published in the year 1974 (Kosaric et al., 1974). Spirulina Platensis species were grown on large scale using secondary effluent of domestic wastewater treatment plant.According to Olguin et al., (2001) Spirulina Platensis has potential to reduce BOD of high carbon containing wastewater due to its mixotropic nature. The present study was concluded that the Spirulina platensis was cultivated on different concentration of dairy effluent yield better growth than control set and very efficient in COD/Phosphate/EC removal in all concentration. Study observed that chlorophyll, protein and carbohydrate content increases in Spirulina by using various concentration of dairy effluent as an alternative feed.
