“…In all of the vermicomposting samples, the decrease in organic carbon content and carbon‐nitrogen ratio (C:N ratio), and the increase in ash content, electrical conductivity, and NPK content, were noticed in the present study, which is consistent with the findings of many other researchers (Banu, Kaliappan, & Dieter, ; Suthar & Singh, ; Yadav & Garg, ). Earthworms enhance the N, P, and K content of vermicasts ( Exhibit ), which can be used as potent fertilizers.…”

Fly ash is a by‐product of coal combustion in thermal power plants. Its generation poses several environmental problems, the most important ones being its capacity for causing pollution and the need for large storage areas to keep it out of the environment. Fly ash management remains a major concern in the 21st century; however, despite these challenges, the material has great potential for beneficial use in agriculture due to its efficacy in modifying and improving soil health and improving crop performance. Vermicomposting is an excellent technique for reducing the toxic heavy metals in fly ash through the introduction of earthworms. The activities of several earthworm species minimize the solubility of heavy metals and increase the bioavailability of major nutrient elements such as phosphorous (P) and nitrogen (N). This article provides a comprehensive review of the scope and benefits of vermiremediating fly ash, demonstrating the abilities of different species of earthworms to accumulate heavy metals and increase the availability of plant nutrients. On the basis of a literature survey, the authors have concluded that adopting vermicomposting technology promises increased, effective fly ash utilization for agricultural benefits.

The acceleration of improved sanitation access in specific urban areas can reduce water-borne diseases and the degradation of water resources. In this paper, the development of technology of wastewater infrastructure in some specific urban regions with an ecosystem approach will be analyzed based on some practical research. The ecosystem approach is analyzed with integrated biophysical and social factors for improved wastewater system; it includes the tidal area, coastal area, and urban water sensitive area. The system of wastewater treatment has certain design criteria to be adapted for specific areas and upgrading the treatment process based on the ecosystem characteristic, community awareness of sanitation and some best practices. The design criteria of wastewater treatment consider the process of environment approach, pollutant transformation target, and the configuration of the processing unit. The option of treatment technology at an individual, communal or settlement scale depends on biophysical factors in each area. This condition can achieve 80-95 % organic removal, 30-70 % nutrient removal by biofilm absorption or phytofiltration. Challenges and social constraints at each selected technology development have an influence on the sustainability of infrastructure in achieving health requirements and the standard of effluent for watercourse or water reuse.

“…River waters that used have poor quality so it can induce the growth of pathogenic microbes in sago starch. Besides that, Banu et al [4] mentions that from sago extraction processing, 94% of waste generated in the form of liquid waste. Sago waste-water that directly channeled into the river can disrupt the flow of the river and cause contamination.…”

Sago extraction processing into sago flour is generally still done in a traditional or semi-mechanical way, with less attention to aspects of hygiene, and resulted sago fermentation spontaneously. This study aimed to isolate and characterize indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from sago wastewater which obtained directly from the traditional sago processing industry in Malangke Barat, South Sulawesi. The sago wastewater was stored for 1, 3 and 7 days of fermentation. The research was conducted on the LAB isolation and purification on MRS agar medium supplemented with 0.5% CaCO3. Two purified putative LAB isolate were each obtained from 1 day fermentation and 3 days fermentation. The LAB isolate from 1 day fermentation has milky white colors and smooth-round colonies, while LAB isolates from 3 days fermentation has creamy colors and smooth-round colonies. Both of the isolate were gram positive-rods, non-motile and negative catalase reaction.
