The use of novel pesticides containing nanomaterials (nanopesticides) is growing and is considered a promising approach to reduce the impacts of agriculture on the environment and human health. However, the environmental effects of these novel agrochemicals are not fully characterized, and more research is needed to determine the benefits and risks they confer. Here, we assessed the impacts of repeated exposures to a Cu(OH) nanopesticide on the soil and sediment biodiversity of target (terrestrial) and nontarget (wetland) ecosystems by performing long-term outdoor mesocosm experiments.

The methane production and the microbial community dynamics of thermophilic anaerobic co-digestion (AD) of corn stover, swine manure and effluent were conducted at total solid (TS) content of 5%, 10% and 15%, the carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N) of 20, 30 and 40 and the effluent volumetric percentage (EVP) of 20%, 40% and 60%. For batches with 5% TS, the highest methane yield of 238.5-283.
