This book covers all technologies, developments, and innovations for the manure treatment to explore various strategies for nutrient recovery as well as energy production around the globe. The main task of the present book is to explain readers the environmental parameters effect livestock production and living standard of rural and urban communities and how green technologies are useful for manure recycling and management. The chapters in the book present an up-to-date information on alternate use of the technology by recycled agriculture bio-based livestock hence stimulating intensive agriculture and animal husbandry to sustain such growth. This book presents an overview on manure utilization through diverse industrial applications to support the ongoing research and development in green sustainable commercial products. The book can serve as a holistic reference source for university undergraduate/graduate students, researchers and scientists working in the area of farm management and green technology.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Distributed Computing and Intelligent Technology, ICDCIT 2024, which was held in Bhubaneswar, India, during January 17–20, 2024. The 24 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 116 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: Distributed Computing (DC) and Intelligent Technology (IT). The DC track solicits original research papers contributing to the foundations and applications of distributed computing, whereas the IT track solicits original research papers contributing to the foundations and applications of Intelligent Technology.
Sustainable Hard Machining: Implementation and Assessment analyzes the various methodologies of cooling and lubrication employed during hard machining operations, along with their potential contributions towards achieving sustainable machining. It includes the needs, challenges and trends towards sustainable hard machining of difficult-to-cut materials through the application of dry, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL), cryogenic and nanofluid assisted MQL for environmental, economic, ecological and societal benefits, leading to environmentally cleaner sustainable machining. Features: Provides an introduction to hard machining, sustainability and environmentally conscious machining Discusses dry and minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) based hard machining Includes computational methods and optimization in hard machining Reviews nano-cutting fluids in hard machining Explores cryogenic cooling in hard machining This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in mechanical engineering, manufacturing and materials science.
The text discusses energy-efficient vehicles as an essential element of sustainable transportation. The text highlights the social, economic, and environmental benefits associated with energy-efficient automobiles, which effectively solve the issue of greenhouse gas emissions, improve air quality, boost energy security, and promote zero-emission. The energy-efficient technologies for transportation, accessibility and safety of the transport system, environmental footprint, health impact, economic development, and social growth are the central theme of the book. It further presents future integrated mobility-energy systems and sustainability indicators. This book: Examines policies, challenge...
Feeding the increasing global population, which is projected to reach ~10 billion by 2050, there has been increasing demands for more improved/sustainable agricultural management practices that can be followed by farmers to improve productivity without jeopardizing the environment and ecosystem. Indeed, about 95% of our food directly or indirectly comes from soil. It is a precious resource, and sustainable soil management is a critical socio–economic and environmental issue. Maintaining the environmental sustainability while the world is facing resource degradation, increasing climate change and population explosion is the current challenge of every food production sectors. Thus, there is ...
The contributions in this volume aim to deepen understanding of some of the current research problems and theories in modern topics such as calculus of variations, optimization theory, complex analysis, real analysis, differential equations, and geometry. Applications to these areas of mathematics are presented within the broad spectrum of research in Engineering Science with particular emphasis on equilibrium problems, complexity in numerical optimization, dynamical systems, non-smooth optimization, complex network analysis, statistical models and data mining, and energy systems. Additional emphasis is given to interdisciplinary research, although subjects are treated in a unified and self-...
Tea is a popular non-alcoholic beverage that maintains exclusivity as well as mass appeal for respite and relaxation. Tea is fast gaining importance for its health benefits as a nutraceutical. In addition to its global end-use, tea plantations as a whole are undergoing a transition towards mechanization, and agro-technolotgies for farm mechanization have been rationalized. With the advent of biotechnological approaches, management of genetic resources and plant improvement are evolving, both for improving productivity and quality under normal and stress environments. Tea manufacture is also undergoing process of transformation due to the advent of new machines with precise and controlled ste...

Benefitting from phytochemicals in medicinal plants has lately gained increasingly more global relevance. The medicinal bioactivity might range from wound healing activity to anti-inflammatory and anti-viral effects. This work describes the challenging scientific process of systematic identification and taxonomy through molecular profiling and nanoparticle production from plant extracts until a final use for e.g. cancer or HIV treatment. From the table of contents PART A: Biodiversity & Traditional Knowledge. __Habitats and Distribution. __Threats and Conservation. __Culture, tradition and indigenous practices. PART B: Phytochemical constituents – Molecules and Characterization Techniques....
