Biodiversity Loss Assessment for Ecosystem Protection
In an era defined by relentless human activities and rapid ecological transformations, the world faces an escalating crisis the precipitous loss of biodiversity. As we grapple with the consequences of industrialization, urbanization, and unchecked developmental pursuits, the very fabric of life on Earth is unraveling. Biodiversity, encompassing the myriad species, their genetic variations, and the intricate interplay within ecosystems, is diminishing at an unprecedented pace. This decline, termed biodiversity loss, extends beyond a mere statistical measure; it reflects the unraveling of the intricate tapestry that sustains life on our planet. In the face of climate change, pollution, habi...
Impact of Societal Development and Infrastructure on Biodiversity Decline

Impact of Societal Development and Infrastructure on Biodiversity Decline is a book that examines these issues comprehensively. It provides insights into the complexities of biodiversity conservation amidst rapid societal development. This book is a timely solution for academics, researchers, and policymakers seeking to understand and mitigate the impacts of such activities on biodiversity. The book explores the ecological and biodiversity ...
Sustainable Practices for Waste Management
The current scenario where we are reaching to next level of increased population (8 billion) and due to increased demand of supplies, the waste generation is so high and being increasing day by day. Hence, we need to adopt zero waste policy everywhere. In this connection, the current waste management practices required to modify and adopt some new techniques for waste management and reduction at source for better environment and future sustainability. Here in this book, we have presented carbon footprint of coal-based power plants; application of environmental biotechnological tools; bioremediation and biodegradation technologies; coal consumption, ash generation and its utilization; e-waste and its management; environment friendly technologies; penalty and incentive mechanisms for coal-based power plants; plastic waste disposal and role of microorganisms; safe use of wastewater in agriculture; solid wastes and their sustainable management practices; agro-residue generation and availability for power sector.
Amelioration Technology for Soil Sustainability
Soil erosion is a complex process that depends on soil properties, ground slope, vegetation, and rainfall amount and intensity. Erosion can be significantly reduced through sustainable agricultural practices and sustainable nutrient management techniques that allow farmers to maintain healthy, productive soil for crops without degrading the environment. There is an urgent need to plan and make necessary amendments to restore soil quality. Amelioration Technology for Soil Sustainability is an essential research publication that provides a current and practical exploration of hydrophobic soil amelioration to improve soil sustainability and crop yield within the field of agriculture. Highlighting topics such as ecological systems, impact analysis, and agriculture, this book is ideal for soil scientists, agriculturalists, farmers, environmentalists, managers, policymakers, professionals, researchers, and students.
Biomass and Bioenergy Solutions for Climate Change Mitigation and Sustainability
The depletion of fossil fuels is a major issue in energy generation; hence, biomass and renewable energy sources, especially bioenergy, are the solution. The dependence on bioenergy has many benefits to mitigate environmental pollution. It is imperative that the global society adopts these alternative, sustainable energy sources in order to mitigate the constant growth of climate change. Biomass and Bioenergy Solutions for Climate Change Mitigation and Sustainability highlights the challenges of energy conservation and current scenarios of existing fossil fuel uses along with pollution potential of burning fossil fuel. It further promotes the inventory, assessment, and use of biomass, pollution control, and techniques. This book provides the solution for climate change, mitigation, and sustainability. Covering topics such as biofuel policies, economic considerations, and microalgae biofuels, this premier reference source is an essential resource for environmental scientists, environmental engineers, government officials, business leaders, politicians, librarians, students and faculty of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
Toxicity and Waste Management Using Bioremediation
Bioremediation is an emerging field of environmental research. The objective of a bioremediation process is to immobilize contaminants (reactants) or to transform them into chemical products that do not pose a risk to human health and the environment. Toxicity and Waste Management Using Bioremediation provides relevant theoretical and practical frameworks and the latest empircal research findings on the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater using bioorganisms. Focusing on effective waste treatment methodologies and management strategies that lead to improved human and environmental health, this timely publication is ideal for use by environmenal scientists, biologists, policy makers, graduate students, and scholars in the fields of environmental science, chemistry, and biology.
Handbook of Research on Monitoring and Evaluating the Ecological Health of Wetlands
Wetlands are among the world’s most productive environments with countless species of plants and animals, as well as humans, dependent upon them for survival. Moreover, they provide many societal benefits including water quality improvement, flood storage, shoreline erosion control, and opportunities for recreation, education, and research. The conservation of inland wetlands is thus critical, and it is vital that they are protected in situ. The Handbook of Research on Monitoring and Evaluating the Ecological Health of Wetlands highlights the challenges of wetland conservation and current scenarios of existing wetlands and their effective management. The book also promotes the inventory, a...
Handbook of Research on Waste Diversion and Minimization Technologies for the Industrial Sector
Due to various issues in the world including rapid urbanization and industrial processes, waste generation has reached levels that are becoming detrimental to the environment and the global population. Waste management has remained a challenging issue for many professional sectors as it is directly linked to an organization’s performance; however, the implementation of efficient and cost-effective waste minimization plans is the first step in improving the global environment. Innovative technologies in waste management are emerging and can help professionals looking to implement more efficient methods of pollution control. The Handbook of Research on Waste Diversion and Minimization Techno...
Current State and Future Impacts of Climate Change on Biodiversity
Understanding the balance of society and nature is imperative when researching ecosystems and their global influence. A method of studying the health of these ecosystems is biodiversity. The more diverse the species that live in an ecosystem, the healthier it is. As the climate continues to transform, small-scale ecosystems are affected, altering their diversity. Environmentalists need a book of research that studies the specific impacts of climate change and how it affects the future of the environment. Current State and Future Impacts of Climate Change on Biodiversity is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on biological systems and how climate change influences their he...
Biostimulation Remediation Technologies for Groundwater Contaminants
The rapid progression of technology has significantly impacted population growth, urbanization, and industrialization in modern society. These developments, while positive on the surface, have created critical environmental problems in recent years. Biostimulation Remediation Technologies for Groundwater Contaminants is a critical scholarly publication that examines the release of heavy metals into the environment as a result of human activities and the use of nanoparticles and other technologies to manage and treat the effects of the pollution. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as toxicity of heavy metals, bioremediation, and acclimated bacterial strains, this book is geared toward environmentalists, engineers, academics, researchers, and graduate-level students seeking current research on bioremediation as an alternate way to manage or degrade heavy metal waste.
