Phycoremediation alternative for shrimp aquaculture effluent management and Islamic perspectives

Mangroves forest plays an important role, ecologically and socioeconomically, which should be highly recognized on conservation program. However, mangrove areas of many Asian countries have been cleared for aquaculture activities, in particular, was mainly for shrimp aquaculture. From 1980 to 1990,...
