The world population is increasing at an alarming rate and tremendous quantity of waste getting produced due to urbanization, industrialization, increase in human population, various anthropogenic activities that cause serious problems disposal management. In developing countries, the most common practice processing management includes (i) land-filling (ii) incineration (iii) unscientific dumping, (iv) vermi-composting. first three methods have one or another drawback including, contamination soil groundwater, environmental pollution by burning biomass, impacting health hygiene environment. One safest for managing organic vermi-composting, eco-friendly bioremediation process mediated earthworms conversion into compost a sustainable manner. Earthworms play very important roles welfare such as decomposers, bio-fertilizer manufacturers, land reclaimer, protein producers, food vitamin source, natural detoxicant bio-indicator pollution, bait, industrial raw materials, above all drug sources. However, contribution still underdetermined modern society. this article, efforts been made summarize current scenario management, potential decomposition find sustainable, eco-friendly, economic solution manage waste.

Soil structure is a crucial constituent influencing soil organic richness, rooting systems, and moisture conservation. Adding biochar to the soil, which directly affects aggregation, can significantly alter status. The extent of this impact influenced by temperature at pyrolysis formed. derived from wheat straw made 350, 450, 550, 650 °C (B350, B450, B550, B650) on aggregation retention was evaluated in study. Based results, B550 had largest mean weight diameter, most water-stable aggregates, highest available water content compared control, with increases 235%, 39% 166% control. On other hand, B350 identified as weakest treatment, no significant difference Using B650 reduced bulk density 13% 12% Therefore, formation micro-aggregates, development porosity, subsequent increase are unavoidable during addition B550. change hydrophilic character attainment an optimal oxygen/carbon ratio degradations critical factor hydrology issues.

Soils play a fundamental role in terrestrial life maintenance. However, agricultural soil pollution with metals (specifically, heavy metals) has resulted global ecological problem spanning decades. Agricultural pesticides and metal-based fertilizers overuse the crop is an imminent threat to ecosystem. In addition, increasing demand for food unsustainable practices agriculture severe damage living organisms soil. Soil microbiota (SM) determining factor environment quality since it plays essential biogeochemical cycles contributes enormously successful production. although more efficient than traditional agrochemicals, metallic nanoparticles (Me-NPs) use - sometimes overused triggered numerous impacts on SM, mainly microbial structure diversity. Thus, this perspective aimed address Me-NPs application agriculture, microbiota, expand discussion dangers ecosystem balance.

Urban-induced habitat conversion drastically changes soil life in a variety of ways. Soil sealing, human disturbance, fragmentation, industrial and vehicular pollution are the main causes urban degradation. arthropods, as one most abundant diverse group fauna, involved many processes that great importance maintaining health multifunctionality. Nevertheless, quality is still mainly characterized by physical, chemical, microbiological parameters. Here, we assessed compared biological woody (REF: reference forest, REM: remnant forest) nonwoody (TURF: public turfgrass, RUD: ruderal habitat) types green spaces along disturbance management intensity gradient Budapest metropolitan area (Hungary), using community metrics arthropod-based indicators. Vegetation cover landscape characteristics study sites were quantified through vegetation urbanization indices, respectively. Basic properties, total bioavailable concentrations heavy metals (Cd, Co, Hg, Ni, Zn) also measured. Acari, Collembola, Hymenoptera (mainly Formicidae) groups. Litter-dweller taxa, particularly Protura, proved to be sensitive disturbance. Representatives Hemiptera, Diptera, Symphyla, Pauropoda common low densities. The taxonomic diversity arthropod assemblages habitats was similar. Although integrated faunal indices showed no differences among types, they provided different responses and, consequently, information. Our findings demonstrated structure soils strongly impacted C/N metal contamination. We found moderate levels have adverse effects on edaphic suggesting degradation soils, even below limits. more disturbed been shown play significant role belowground biodiversity, thereby functions.
