Sustainable Agricultural Production Systems
Due to the growth of the world population, food production has increased exponentially as have the agricultural production systems used to produce food. This book presents both traditional and modern forms of agricultural production, with an emphasis on sustainable practices. The volume discusses seed improvement, crop protection, phytosanitary aspects, protected agriculture, plant factories, hydroponic systems, agricultural mechanization, bioremediation, reduction of herbicide use, and characterization of bioactive compounds. Some methods discussed include in vitro propagation, greenhouse hydroponics, biostimulants from algae, cartography models of vulnerable environmental interactions, nuclear and plastics engineering, eco-friendly extraction processes, use of secondary metabolites in plant defense mechanisms, and more.
Urban Horticulture
Urban horticulture is a means of utilizing every little space available in cities amidst buildings and other constructions for growing plants. It utilizes this space to raise gardens that can be economically productive while contributing to environmental greening. It can boost food and ornamental plants production, provide job opportunities, promote green space development, waste recycling, and urban landscaping, and result in improved environment. This book covers a wide array of topics on this subject and constitutes a valuable reference guide for students, professors, researchers, builders, and horticulturists concerned with urban horticulture, city planning, biodiversity, and the sustainable development of horticultural resources.
Biosystems Engineering Applications for Quality Food Production
Biosystems engineering as an integrated science combines the fields of engineering design and analysis with biological sciences to provide solutions for food production and processing problems. Since food production is an ever-growing, constantly changing food engineering frontier, it is faced with a range of dynamic problems. This new book, Biosystems Engineering Applications for Quality Food Production: Waste Valorization and New Product Development, shows how the two areas of biosystems engineering and food industry come together in an interdisciplinary way to offer solutions to these problems. The book presents the most recent advances in these two areas, ranging from the use of biodiges...
Omics for Environmental Engineering and Microbiology Systems
Bioremediation using microbes is a sustainable technology for biodegradation of target compounds, and an omics approach gives more clarity on these microbial communities. This book provides insights into the complex behavior of microbial communities and identifies enzymes/metabolites and their degradation pathways. It describes the application of microbes and their derivatives for the bioremediation of potentially toxic and novel compounds. It highlights the existing technologies along with industrial practices and real-life case studies. Features: Includes recent research and development in the areas of omics and microbial bioremediation. Covers the broad environmental pollution control app...
Biocontrol Systems and Plant Physiology in Modern Agriculture
Biocontrol Systems and Plant Physiology in Modern Agriculture: Processes, Strategies, Innovations focuses on new production alternatives that do not include pesticides, herbicides, or chemicals for primary food production and instead rely on biologically controlled systems of production. The book also relates a number of advances and innovations in the use of agricultural technologies that employ the study of the physiology of plants to know their resistance to different environments in modern agriculture. The book presents research offering viable alternatives for the control of pests for safe food production that are environmentally friendly and that facilitate the reduction of production ...
Microbial Nexus for Sustainable Wastewater Treatment
Microbial ecology is pivotal in wastewater treatment, where microorganisms play a vital role in breaking down organic matter and ultimately reduce the levels of contaminants in treated water, making it safe for reuse in agriculture, industry, and other applications. The book, Microbial Nexus for Sustainable Wastewater Treatment: Resources, Efficiency, and Reuse, ventures into the dynamic world of microbial ecosystems, unveiling their pivotal role in reshaping wastewater treatment technologies. This book addresses novel microbial techniques related to sustainable, efficient technologies of wastewater treatment and wastewater reuse as well as obtaining high-quality effluents from treatment pla...
Hyperspectral Imaging in Agriculture, Food and Environment
This book is about the novel aspects and future trends of the hyperspectral imaging in agriculture, food, and environment. The topics covered by this book are hyperspectral imaging and their applications in the nondestructive quality assessment of fruits and vegetables, hyperspectral imaging for assessing quality and safety of meat, multimode hyperspectral imaging for food quality and safety, models fitting to pattern recognition in hyperspectral images, sequential classification of hyperspectral images, graph construction for hyperspectral data unmixing, target visualization method to process hyperspectral image, and soil contamination mapping with hyperspectral imagery. This book is a general reference work for students, professional engineers, and readers with interest in the subject.
Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
