Digital Transformation: Using Technology to Reshape Industries
Abstract
Digital transformation has become a powerful force reshaping industries across the globe, fundamentally altering how organizations operate, compete, and deliver value. This in-depth analysis explores the wide-ranging impact of digital transformation, focusing on key technological drivers such as real-time analytics, edge computing, automation, and cloud infrastructure. It examines the transformative effects of these innovations across various sectors, with particular attention to energy, manufacturing, and healthcare, where traditional processes and operational models have been revolutionized. The paper also addresses the implications for the workforce, highlighting changes in job markets, new opportunities, and the urgent need for reskilling in the digital era. Looking ahead, it explores the future of business competitiveness, the integration of sustainability, and offers strategic recommendations for organizations navigating the digital landscape. The findings underscore that digital transformation is not just about adopting new technologies but also about reimagining business models, enhancing customer engagement, and creating new value propositions.

Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles as Novel Nanofertilizers: A Comprehensive Agricultural Perspective
Abstract
Nano-biotechnology has emerged as a transformative platform for developing next-generation fertilizers capable of delivering nutrients to plants in a controlled, targeted, and highly efficient manner. Nanoparticle-engineered fertilizers provide several advantages over conventional formulations, including improved nutrient bioavailability, sustained and slow-release behaviour, enhanced uptake efficiency, and reduced nutrient losses to the environment. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) and their derivatives have gained significant attention as promising nano fertilizers due to their large surface area, controlled nutrient-release capabilities, and demonstrated physiological benefits to crops. The application of Zn ONPs as nanofertilizers can strengthen plant tolerance to abiotic stresses—such as drought, salinity, and heavy metal toxicity—thereby promoting crop resilience and yield stability. The evolving research landscape indicates that ZnO nanofertilizers can serve as highly effective alternatives to conventional zinc salts when formulated and applied with appropriate consideration for dose optimization, safety, and environmental stewardship. This review critically synthesizes recent advances in ZnO nano fertilizer research, encompassing their synthesis routes, physicochemical characteristics, mechanisms of uptake and translocation in plants, and agronomic efficacy across diverse cropping systems. Additionally, it examines their interactions within soil–plant systems, potential toxicity and environmental risks, and future directions for developing safe, sustainable, and nano-enabled agricultural practices.

Evaluation of Ground Water Contamination by Inorganic Pollutants in Tea Garden Area of Biswanath Chariali, Biswanath, Assam, India
Abstract
Water stored underground is the nature’s blessing to the mankind. It is one of the Earth’s most precious resources and its development plays a vital role in the Country’s economy. The present investigation is a modest attempt to understand the potability of drinking water provided by different sources in the tea belt area of Biswanath Chariali, Biswanath, Assam. It has been observed that from the early point of the tea gardens a lot of pesticides and various types of chemical fertilizers have been used continuously. It is very likely that it may contaminate the ground water quality of the area by percolation, runoff and leaching process. Moreover due to lack of appropriate maintenance practice some source are observed in very worst condition and proper scientific study in this area is very scanty. Therefore, the evaluation of inorganic pollutants in groundwater in tea garden areas is a crucial for ensuring sustainable development and protecting human health. This study assesses the levels and sources of inorganic pollutants in groundwater sources within tea garden areas. A total of 10 numbers of water samples were collected from different water sources like ring wells, deep-tube wells and main supply plants of the gardens to study the different water quality parameters like pH, EC, TDS, TH, TA, Ca, Mg, free CO2, F-, Cl-, SO4 2-. Data were subjected to normal distribution pattern of the water quality parameters and correlation analysis was carried out to study the interrelationships between different parameters. The results revel concerning levels of levels of contamination. Agricultural activities, industrial operations and domestic waste are identified as significant sources of pollution. The study highlights the need for effective water management strategies, including regular monitoring, sustainable agricultural practices and proper waste management, to mitigate risks to human health.

Study on Physicochemical Properties of Water of Bamgaon Village, Assam
Abstract
Water resources are most important part of the natural ecosystem and potentially influence agriculture, industry and life. The modernization, industrialization and necessity to ease life has affected the water resources polluting it to high extent. Thus, continuous evaluation of physicochemical parameters of water bodies is utmost necessary to check on water quality for drinking and other purposes. The study on physicochemical characteristics of different water sources in the Bamgaon region has been studied to understand the quality of drinking water; specifically focusing on Bamgaon PWSS raw and filtered water, as well as hand tube-well water. By analyzing key water quality parameters such as pH, turbidity, hardness, fluoride, calcium, iron, arsenic, sulfur, magnesium, and alkalinity, the study aims to determine the suitability of these water sources for various domestic purposes. This analysis helps in identifying any potential health risks associated with water consumption and provides a scientific basis for recommending appropriate treatment or intervention measures.
