crayfish or prawnsin tanks) with hydroponics (cultivating plants in water) in a symbiotic environment. In aquaculture‚ effluents accumulate in the water‚ increasing toxicity for the fish. This water is led to a hydroponic system where the by-products from the aquaculture are filtered out by the plants as vital nutrients‚ after which the cleansed water is recirculated back to the animals. The term aquaponics is a portmanteau of the terms aquaculture and hydroponic. That’s why we would like to introduce

What is green chemistry? According to McGraw-Hill (2003)‚ green chemistry is “the use of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate substances hazardous to human health or the environment.” On a simpler note‚ this new approach to botanic life is making a large impact on nature and the environment. The improvements made by researchers studying green chemistry have been beneficial to the ecosystem because they are helping rid the atmosphere of any substances or chemicals at risk of damaging

technology used in production is highly innovative and ecological as the water used in the fish production is treated by a biofiltration system‚ to convert the ammonia from the fish into nitrates. These nitrates are then used as a fertilizer for the hydroponic lettuce production. This system has environmentally sustainable advantages through combining the production. The system is minimizes water use and loss whilst the vegetables are able to fully utilize the wastewater of the fish instead of being discharged

Hydroponics Introduction NAME HERE and I became fascinated by hydroponics and the idea that one doesn’t have to get their hands dirty to be a great gardener‚ and if your like us that’s a good thing. The idea of hydroponics has been around since the pyramids where build‚ but in all these years it never seemed to catch on. It took about forty-six hundred years before the first scientist took a look at hydroponics and adapted it to grow crops‚ this was a professor at the University of California

foods need to be made. Through hydroponics more plants and crops can be created in a shorter amount of time. "Hydroponics is an excellent method of conducting research with controlled conditions of nutrient availability." The problem is that if the exact amount of minerals are not used the produce may have negative side effects or unwanted results. Through the research of hydroponics the less fortunate can produce their own crop while saving resources. A hydroponics garden may use only a fraction

an even supply of moisture‚ and they need oxygen around the roots. It is possible to provide these necessary components for plant growth without soil. 6) Advantages Some of the reasons why hydroponics is being adapted around the world for food production are the following: No soil is needed for hydroponics The water stays in the system and can be reused - thus‚ lower water costs It is possible to control the nutrition levels in their entirety - thus‚ lower nutrition costs No nutrition pollution

from purchasing these sustainable foods one is not only helping our economy they may also helping their own bodies. There are many unique ways to incorporate growing sustainable foods and incorporating the process into our daily lives. By using hydroponic production of fruits and vegetables you can also produce artistic piece of work plus nourishment.
