This edited book focusses on green chemistry as the research community endeavours to create eco-friendly materials and technologies. It provides an in-depth overview of the fundamentals, key concepts and experimental techniques for eco-friendly synthesis of organic compounds and metal/metal oxide nanoparticles/nanomaterials. It also emphasizes the mechanisms, designing and industrial technologies for green synthesis and its applications. Each chapter brings the recent developments, state of the art, challenges and perspectives which cover all the aspects in one place, and which concern the green synthesis and evolution. Authored by world-renowned experts in a broad range of green chemistry sectors, this book is an archival reference guide for researchers, engineers, scientists and postgraduates working in the field of sustainable science, green chemistry, environmental science, engineering sciences and industrial technologies.
Pests cause economic damage to crops and stored products, while vectors are responsible for the transmission of disease-causing agents in human beings and livestock. Although the application of synthetic pesticides in agriculture has given immediate relief, it has also caused well-known side effects, leading to a general consensus among entomologists and agriculturists to shift towards other ecofriendly pest management. Insect natural enemies consisting of predators, parasitoids, and pathogens have attracted the attention of scientists across the globe. These natural enemies exist in agroecosystems and suppress the populations of pests. Parasitoids are farmers’ friends and the most success...
Metal Oxide Defects: Fundamentals, Design, Development and Applications provides a broad perspective on the development of advanced experimental techniques to study defects and their chemical activity and catalytic reactivity in various metal oxides. This book highlights advances in characterization and analytical techniques to achieve better understanding of a wide range of defects, most importantly, state-of-the-art methodologies for controlling defects. The book provides readers with pathways to apply basic principles and interpret the behavior of metal oxides. After reviewing characterization and analytical techniques, the book focuses on the relationship of defects to the properties and...
Contributed papers presented at the conference organized by Central Mechanical Engineering Research Institute.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Information Systems Security, ICISS 2011, held in Kolkata, India, in December 2011. The 20 revised full papers presented together with 4 short papers and 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 105 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on access control and authorization, malwares and anomaly detection, crypto and steganographic systems, verification and analysis, wireless and mobile systems security, Web and network security.
"Naskar is a self-trained scientist and thinker who discovers the paradigm-shifting phenomena of the human mind in this book." - Michael A. Persinger, Director of Laurentian University's Consciousness Research Laboratory, Canada "The book is very interesting and useful. I am sure Neurosutra will be very timely and effective." - Sam Pitroda, Father of Indian Telecom Revolution "This is a fantastic summary of the amazing discoveries on the brain and a guide to apply them in your personal life by a talented author and a brilliant neuroscientist." - Ronald Cicurel, co-author of ‘The Relativistic Brain: How it works and why it cannot be simulated by a Turing machine' Neurosutra is a fascinating...
Agricultural Sustainability is a combination of technologies and implementation processes that are used to manage information-related with maintenance of equilibrium condition in the scenario of productivity level in the field of agriculture. Sustainable agriculture is not just about food security, the protection of crops and its cultivation or while it is being processed; it is also about the protection of environment with economic equity and profitability. This is a composite field involving agricultural science, engineering, database and soil-based crop management, user training, and policy issues. A common objective of work in this field is to protect the environment and defend degenerat...
