Air Pollution and Control
This book provides a fully comprehensive, rigorous and refreshing treatment of ‘Air Pollution and Control’ covering present day technology and developments. It covers various new topics like bioaerosols or aeroallergens and hazardous air pollutants including diesel exhaust and dioxins. The book is intended to meet the requirements of (a) Undergraduate and postgraduate students of particularly Environmental and Mechanical Engineering and also other branches of Engineering, (b) Technologists, designers, operation and maintenance engineers of industries, electrical power plants, heat and power utilities, (c) Aspirants for competitive examinations of IAS, IES, IFS, PCS, and aspirants for various state and private technical services, etc. and (d)General readers interested in the field for better understanding and knowledge. The book is divided into 20 chapters and presents enormous information covering all aspects of Air Pollution in various sectors relevant to Indian conditions. Each of the following chapters is followed by questions at the end based upon the text.
Renewable Fuels
"Renewable fuels have become important to curb emission of greenhouse gases which are causing damage to the environment and climate changes. Ideally, utilization of renewable fuels can be a zero carbon operation. Planting suitable trees on all waste lands and agroforestry on a large scale can fulfil the local needs of timber, fuel, fruits, etc. All kinds of lignocellulosic biomass can be converted to useful liquid fuels like biodiesel, methane or chemicals. Hydrogen can be used as a Renewable Fuel because of its desirable characteristics and properties for its use as a green fuel"--
Renewable Fuels
Renewable fuels, in the present times, have become important to curb emission of greenhouse gases, which are causing damage to the environment and leading to climatic changes. Ideally, their utilization can be a zero carbon operation. Planting suitable trees on all waste lands and agro forestry on a large scale can fulfil the needs of timber, fuel, fruits, etc. All kinds of lignocellulosic biomass can be converted by several methods to useful liquid fuels like alcohols, biodiesel, methane, renewable diesel and renewable gasoline. Hydrogen can be used as a renewable fuel because of its desirable characteristics and properties for its use as a green fuel.

The Endless Learning Curve
“Every person has dreams; some may be realized while some may remain dreams only. I have always believed in dreaming and dreaming big. I have also believed that mere dreaming is not enough. One must work hard to realize those dreams by putting in honest efforts in the right direction. I have also had several dreams, some of which were realized but some did remain dreams only. It is reasonable to analyze, at this advanced age, which of the dreams could be turned into realities, and which remained dreams only. I have the pleasure of sharing with my readers my life time experience in this direction.”
Advances in Research on Vegetable Production Under a Changing Climate Vol. 2
This second volume on the topic will be extremely useful for the researchers and postgraduate students working on vegetable crops with a special focus on climate change. Today, the entire world is suffering from global warming and its consequent, climate change. This has emerged as the most prominent global environmental issue and there is an urgent need to mitigate its impact on agriculture. Over the past 20 years South Asia has had a robust economic growth, yet it is home to more than one fourth of the world’s hunger and 40% of the world’s malnourished children and women. Persistent climatic variability, which results in frequent drought and flood, is among the major reasons for this p...
The Cucumber Genome
This edited book presents the latest research on cucumber, its genetic resources and diversity, tissue culture and genetic transformation, mapping of economic genes and QTLs, whole genome sequencing, comparative genomics, and breeding strategies. The mechanism of sex expression, interspecific hybridization, and cell biology are also described. The book discusses the genome draft of cucumber and the application of genome editing. This book is useful to the students, teachers and scientists in academia and relevant private companies interested in horticulture, genetics, breeding, and related areas.
Industrial Ergonomics, 1/e
Ergonomics (or human factors) as a discipline aims to design jobs, equipment and workplace to facilitate easy-to-use human "machine interfaces. This book presents the fundamental principles and practice of ergonomics in the industrial environment. It effectively covers the concepts, basic human physiology and human capabilities, analyzing the design of the workplace with suitable examples. The book explains muscular work and movements along with the relevant physiological principles. It describes practical guidelines for work layout and workplace design in relation to human body dimensions in order to optimize human well-being and working efficiency. Keeping in mind human capabilities and li...
