Inorganic Nanopesticides and Nanofertilizers

This book discusses inorganic/metallic nanopesticides and fertilizers. Rather than providing a general review of the topic, it offers a critical assessment of what has been achieved and highlights future measures to allow agriculture to profit from the properties of inorganic nanoparticles. It covers a variety of topics, including strategies for preparing cost-effective nanoparticles, their chemistry both within and outside the plant, the effects of nanoparticles in the field and whether the current strategies were successful in increasing crop yields. This book will appeal to readers in academia and industry, as well as stakeholders and anyone who has an interest in the applications of inorganic nanopesticides and nanofertilizers as well as the potential use of these technologies in agriculture.

Environmental Remediation Strategies of New and Emerging Chemical Contaminants

Rapid research advancements in electronics, biomedicine, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty chemicals have resulted in the environmental release of a large number of emerging pollutants. New and emerging pollutants (NEPs) are defined as xenobiotic organic chemicals that have recently been identified as potential threats to human health and the environment. NEPs is an umbrella term including antibiotics, antiepileptics, antidepressants, analgesics, anti-inflammatories, beta-blockers, cosmetics, disinfectants, microbeads, microplastics, etc. There is a rising level of concern regarding the fate and behaviour, human and animal health impact, and environmental pollution caused by these xenobiotic NEPs. In light of the potential effect of these organic pollutants, urgent action is required not only to understand the potential risks associated with these chemicals, but also for the development of novel approaches for sustainable remediation.
