The used adsorbent was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and chemical analysis indicate that this calcium phosphate is a CaPT-Ap. The effect of particle sizes , mass of the adsorbent, contact time ,temperature and the concentration of the dye on the adsorption were determined. The kinetic study showed that the pseudo-second-order model gives a better description of the kinetics of the adsorption reaction than the pseudo-first-order model. Analysis of adsorption isotherms showed that adsorption governed by the isotherms of Freundlich. Thermodynamic parameters such as ΔG°, ΔS° and ΔH° were calculated.

The methanolic extracts of Carpodesmia tamariscifolia , Cystoseira humilis , Carpodesmia mediterranea, Sacchoriza polyschides , Bifurcaria bifurcata , Hypnea musciformis and Caulacanthus ustulatus were considerably active against all fungi depending on seasonal variations in the levels of inhibitory activity.

The antioxidant activity of the algae that possessed high antifungal activity was studied. Methanolic extract of C. tamariscifolia contains high phenolic content while the highest content of flavonoids was found in the C. humilis extract.

In addition, this catalysis (x%Cu-FB) was employed as heterogeneous catalysts for CWPO of crystal violet dye removal using different parameters effects in particular the percentage of metallic precursor Cu, the catalyst amount, the concentration of CV dye, the hydrogen peroxide H 2 O 2 concentration, the temperature, the pH solution. The discolorization rate efficiency was boosted from 98% for 1% Cu-FB after only 35 min of reaction with the optimum conditions namely pH=10, [CV] = 20 mg L -1 , [H 2 O 2 ] =0.048 mol L -1 , W Cu-FB = 2 g L -1 and T=50°C.

The objective of this work is to examine the capacity of these amendments to improve soil quality in comparison with manure (M). Three types of soil were tested: the first has been amended for two years with a compost of similar composition (S 1 ), the second not amended (S 2 ), and the third corresponds to an agricultural soil that is amended with chemical fertilizer (S 3 ). All the trials were carried out on two vegetable gardens: potato and radish.
