Sustainable Solutions for Elemental Deficiency and Excess in Crop Plants
This book covers all aspects of deficiency of essential elements and excess of toxic ones in crop plants. The metal deficiency and toxicity are the two sides of same problem that are threatening to sustainable agricultural growth. The book presents prospective strategies for the management of elemental nutrition of crop plants. Chapters are arranged in a manner so as to develop a lucid picture of the topic beginning from basics to advanced research. The content is supplemented with flow charts and figures to make it convenient for readers to holistically grasp the concepts. It will be a value addition for students, research scholars and professionals in understanding the basics as well latest developments in the area of metal deficiency and excess in crop plants.
Plant Ecophysiology and Adaptation under Climate Change: Mechanisms and Perspectives I
This book presents the state-of-the-art in plant ecophysiology. With a particular focus on adaptation to a changing environment, it discusses ecophysiology and adaptive mechanisms of plants under climate change. Over the centuries, the incidence of various abiotic stresses such as salinity, drought, extreme temperatures, atmospheric pollution, metal toxicity due to climate change have regularly affected plants and, and some estimates suggest that environmental stresses may reduce the crop yield by up to 70%. This in turn adversely affects the food security. As sessile organisms, plants are frequently exposed to various environmental adversities. As such, both plant physiology and plant ecophysiology begin with the study of responses to the environment. Provides essential insights, this book can be used for courses such as Plant Physiology, Environmental Science, Crop Production and Agricultural Botany. Volume 1 provides up-to-date information on the impact of climate change on plants, the general consequences and plant responses to various environmental stresses.
Climate Neutral and Resilient Farming Systems
This book presents evidence-based research on climate-neutral and resilient farming systems and further provides innovative and practical solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating the impact of climate change. Intensive farming systems are a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions, thereby contributing to global warming and the acceleration of climate change. As paddy rice farming is one of the largest contributors, and environmentally damaging farming systems, it will be a particular focus of this book. The mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions needs to be urgently addressed to achieve the 2°C target adopted by COP21 and the 2015 Paris Agreement, but this is no...
Emerging Treatment Technologies for Waste Management
This book is focused on the current status of industrial pollution, its source, characteristics, and management through various advanced treatment technologies. The book covers the recycle, reuse and recovery of waste for the production of value-added products. The book explores industrial wastewater pollution and its treatment through various advanced technologies and also the source and characteristics of solid waste and its management for environmental safety. It discusses new methods and technologies to combat the waste-related pollution and focuses on the use of recycled products. This book is of value to upcoming students, researchers, scientists, industry persons and professionals in the field of environmental science and engineering, microbiology, biotechnology, toxicology, further it is useful for global and local authorities and policy makers responsible for the management of liquid and solid wastes.
Achieving Full Realization and Mitigating the Challenges of the Internet of Things
As the internet of things market is booming, several issues are delaying the full realization of the technology. Currently, business competitors are jockeying for a piece of the market, meaning solutions from researchers that address these issues is crucial for internet of things technology developers. Overpromising followed by underdelivering has been the current approach by many innovators, and the mismatch results in losses in production, orphaned technologies, and frequent system failures. Solutions that address internet of things performance issues must be studied in order to take full advantage of this emerging market. Achieving Full Realization and Mitigating the Challenges of the Internet of Things addresses the challenges faced in rolling out internet of things technologies as well as the various performance issues. Covering a range of topics such as cybersecurity and connectivity issues, this reference work is ideal for industry professionals, academicians, researchers, practitioners, technology developers, instructors, and students.
Arsenic Remediation of Food and Water
The book provides information on the sources of arsenic contamination of groundwater and their impacts in the first part of the book consisting of 8 chapters. Process developments such as nano-adsorbents for removal of arsenic and other heavy metals are discussed in the second part of the book that comprises of 4 chapters. The third part of the book includes 4 chapters on technological interventions for the removal of arsenic such as indigenous ceramic membranes and Subterranean Arsenic Removal (SAR). The fourth part of the book deals with arsenic contamination in food materials and food chain systems, and consists of 5 chapters. Arsenic has long been associated with a variety of health complications in the human body. In order to address this, a chapter on arsenic contamination and impacts on human health has been included in the fifth part of the book. The book would be a valuable reference material for the scientific community in developing countries working on community water supply and treatment, food safety, public health and policy.
Bioremediation for Sustainable Environmental Cleanup
The present book, Bioremediation for Sustainable Environmental Cleanup, has a compilation of seventeen chapters comprehensively describing the state-of-the-art on emerging bioremediation approaches employed for sustainable environmental clean-up of diverse environmental pollutants such as metal(loid)s, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, dyes, pesticides, petroleum hydrocarbons, etc., by using bacteria, fungi, algae, higher plants, and novel materials like biohybrids, nano-biomaterials, and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4). Different bioremediation strategies such as biosorption, bioprecipitation, bioaccumulation, biodegradation, biotransformation etc. have been described in detail. The emphasis throughout, however, is on sustainable environmental clean-up. Eminent researchers from various countries located in diverse geographical areas, including Argentina, Canada, Germany, India, Pakistan, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America, have contributed towards the chapters of this book.
