Sustainable Microbial Technologies for Valorization of Agro-Industrial Wastes
This book provides an overview of the different aspects of microbial bioconversion methodologies for valorization of underutilized wastes of varied nature. It covers microbiological/biotechnological aspects, environmental concerns, bioprocess development, scale-up aspects, challenges, and opportunities in microbial valorization at commercial scale. It explains sustainable microbiological processes for bioconversion and valorization of the wastes for production of various products of commercial interests, including biofuels, bioenergy, and other platform chemicals. The book • presents potential biotechnological topics and strategies for the valuation of agricultural waste materials; • pro...
Food Processing Waste and Utilization
Because of its high Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and sheer volume, waste from food processing has significant potential to pollute land, water, and air. Both environmentally and economically, it is important to properly treat food processing wastes including the recovery of valuable products. Food Processing Waste and Utilization: Tackling Pollution and Enhancing Product Recovery discusses possible solutions to tackle food waste generation and its further utilization. It addresses process engineering economics, microbiology of waste recycling, biochemical and nutritional aspects of food waste processing. The book includes detailed guidance and case studies about utilization/valorization of f...
European Perspectives on Green Biotechnology Business Practices
Many interesting publications can be found in the field of green biotechnology entrepreneurship, but most of them focus either on entrepreneurship in biotechnologies in general, or address industries that could benefit from the innovations brought about by green biotech. This book is a European approach to the subject, that starts from concepts and principles and moves to specific elements, promotion and management, financial aspects, achieved economic performances, information technology and communication tools that can be used for the initiation and development of a businesses in this sector, all the way up to a brief mapping of some good practices in different European countries. The book will be of interest to a wide range of readers, such as all those interested in starting and developing a business in this field, and also those who just wish to gather green biotech entrepreneurial knowledge, and to develop their skills and competencies in sustainable development.

A Better Planet
A practical, bipartisan call to action from the world's leading thinkers on the environment and sustainability Sustainability has emerged as a global priority over the past several years. The 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change and the adoption of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals through the United Nations have highlighted the need to address critical challenges such as the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, water shortages, and air pollution. But in the United States, partisan divides, regional disputes, and deep disagreements over core principles have made it nearly impossible to chart a course toward a sustainable future. This timely new book, edited by celebrated scholar Daniel C. Esty, offers fresh thinking and forward-looking solutions from environmental thought leaders across the political spectrum. The book's forty essays cover such subjects as ecology, environmental justice, Big Data, public health, and climate change, all with an emphasis on sustainability. The book focuses on moving toward sustainability through actionable, bipartisan approaches based on rigorous analytical research.
Valorization of Biomass Wastes for Environmental Sustainability
Zusammenfassung: This volume discusses the reduction, recycling, and reuse of industrial and agricultural biomass wastes to develop value-added products using environmentally sustainable practices and technologies. Through these waste valorization approaches, biomass waste materials can be converted into useful bio-chemical products, sustainable construction materials, polymers, bio-energy, and bio-fuel as sustainable alternatives to products and materials with negative environmental and health consequences. The chapters highlight the development and implementation of eco-friendly solutions to biomass waste production with the aim of reducing natural resource deterioration, bolstering rural and small-scale business systems in communities impacted by pollution and climate change, and providing power from residual biomass to broadly reduce environmental impacts through improved waste management practices. The book is intended to be a useful resource for researchers, policymakers, NGOs, government agencies, and local community authorities working in waste management and environmental sustainability
Pesticides Bioremediation
This volume offers the latest theory, procedures, techniques and applications pertaining to the bioremediation of pesticides, as well as current case studies. The book is composed of chapters written by global experts and is divided into three topical sections. Section A deals with concepts and mechanisms of pesticides bioremediation; Section B examines latest tools and techniques; Section C offers global case studies of pesticides bioremediation. The novel methods described here are timely, as traditional pesticide usage leads to high wastage via decay, vaporization and seepage. This of course leads to environmental contamination and has necessitated the development and use of novel technologies like bioremediation for minimizing the impact of pesticides on the environment. This volume will be of relevance to academics, researchers and students who are working in the realm of pesticide bioremediation, and will enable policy makers and managerial experts across the globe in drafting policies and strategies for the management and treatment of pesticides.

This book: Discusses computational agents for handling automation issues and the role of ethics in industrial resolution Presents intelligence approaches for products, operations, systems, and services Illustrates the fundamentals of computational intelligence to forecast and analyze th...
Bioseparation Engineering
Bioseparation Engineering is meant for undergraduate and the postgraduate student community pursuing careers in Life Sciences. It concentrates on the more recent methods and techniques for separating components and products of the biotechnology industry. Each chapter deals with a specific type or area of application and includes information on the basic principles, industrial equipment available, commercial applications and an overview of current research and development. Main objective of the book is to provide in-depth knowledge of the subject in an interesting and paramount simple way
Intelligent Circuits and Systems for SDG 3 – Good Health and well-being
ICICS is a series of conferences initiated by School of Electronics and Electrical Engineering at Lovely Professional University. Looking at the response to the conference, the bi-annual conference now onwards will be annual. The 5th International Conference on Intelligent Circuits and Systems (ICICS 2023) will be focusing on intelligent circuits and systems for achieving the targets in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3, identified as ‘Good Health and Wellbeing’ by United Nations (Refs: https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal3, https://sdg-tracker.org/).
