Bioremediation treatments for the elimination of inorganic salt waste generated in general chemistry laboratories through the use of vermiculture techniques.

Abstract

Bioremediation is defined as any process that uses microorganisms, fungi, plants, or living organisms to degrade and transform contaminants. This study analyzes the effects on the development and growth of the Californian red worm (Eisenia foetida) as a result of the application of inorganic salt residues to substrates generated in the general chemistry laboratories of the University of Pamplona. A substrate of horse manure mixed with goat manure, plant matter, and molasses was used, and 50 individuals were planted in it, whose growth was studied during their development, observing the effect that these residues can have on the worms.
The following study aims to investigate the effects that the application of inorganic salts can have on the cultivation of California red worms as a bioremediation treatment for reducing inorganic waste generated in laboratories.
The following work aims to study the effects that the application of inorganic salts may have on the sowing of Californian red worms as a bioremediation treatment for reducing inorganic waste generated in chemistry laboratories.
