Bioremediation Technology
The book describes hazardous waste industries, sources of waste generation, characterization and treatment processes/ methods and technique and technology to deal with the treated waste as per the prescribed standard. Advanced treatment based on the microbial remediation, plant-based decontamination, rhizoremediation and nano-based remediation is also explained. Advances in treatment technology using biotechnological tools/bionanotechnology for removal of contaminants are described. This volume will help readers to develop biotechnological and nanotechnological approaches for the remediation of hazardous waste and the developed technology that can be transferred from laboratory to land and piloting to commercial scenarios. Prof. M. H. Fulekar a Professor and Joint Director (R&D), Centre of Research for Development, Parul University. Dr. Bhawana Pathak is working as an Associate Professor and Dean in School of Environment and Sustainable Development, Central University of Gujarat.
De las urbes a los territorios inteligentes
La firma del acuerdo para la terminación del conflicto armado, la apertura económica, la adopción de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible, la firma del Acuerdo de París para el Cambio Climático y el ingreso de Colombia a la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económico, configuran un escenario con importantes retos y profundas transformaciones del territorio nacional para los próximos 30 años. En este contexto, surge el debate sobre la necesidad de planificar ciudades y territorios que cuenten con las capacidades para responder a los requerimientos sociales, económicos, culturales, geográficos y demográficos del país. Pero, ¿cómo lograr este objetivo con las particularidades del territorio colombiano? El presente texto busca entonces, convertirse en un espacio de reflexión y discusión en torno a los retos que implica entender el desarrollo urbano-regional desde la perspectiva de los territorios inteligentes, abordando experiencias nacionales e internacionales que sirvan como referentes para la formulación de proyectos que fundamenten su pertinencia sobre las dinámicas de los sistemas territoriales y los esquemas de gestión y gobernanza.
Propuesta de mitigación para los sectorescríticos de inundación en la localidad de Suba
Este primer número de la publicación “Construyendo Sociedad” es la materialización de una visión que se ha logrado consolidar con más de quince años de un trabajo orientado a la formación integral de profesionales, no solo desde el ámbito disciplinar, sino también desde el desarrollo de competencias que le permitan tener una perspectiva más amplia del mundo y por ende, asumir una postura ante los retos y problemas que a diario se deben enfrentar en una sociedad como la nuestra. Como bien lo diría la Co-autora de este trabajo, pensar soluciones desde la Ingeniería Civil a situaciones donde quienes se ven afectados son seres de carne y hueso, teniendo presente que el hombre es ...
Movilidad Urbana y Espacio Público
En este libro conjugan miradas críticas y reflexivas acerca de diversos tipos de movilidad ciudadana. Dado que la posibilidad de desplazamiento en contextos urbanos requiere de un equilibrio entre las necesidades de los grupos sociales y la infraestructura urbana que las satisfagan, Movilidad urbana y espacio público: reflexiones, métodos y contextos compila investigaciones que analizan dicha tensión y que lo convierten en un texto de obligada lectura para los investigadores de este tema y para el público en general
Bioremediation Technology
Bioremediation Technology: Hazardous Waste Management describes hazardous waste industries, sources of waste generation, characterization and treatment processes/methods, and technique and technology to deal with the treated waste as per the prescribed standard. Advanced treatment based on the microbial remediation, plant-based decontamination, rhizoremediation and nano-based remediation is also explained. Advances in treatment technology using biotechnological tools/bionanotechnology for removal of contaminants are described. This volume will help readers to develop bio-nano-based technologies, which can be transferred from lab to land, and pilot to commercial scenarios. Covers bioremediation aspects of hazardous waste generation from industries, their characterization and treatment Includes case studies at field scale of bioremediation processes Describes electronic waste and their identification, characterization, treatment and recovery of heavy metals through bioleaching/ biosorption Covers toxic waste and statistics, and bioreactor design and applications Discusses relevant technology transfer from lab to land
Under the canopy
Despite the importance of forests for global processes and the tradition of forest management by local Amazonian peoples, there is not much available literature on gender and forests in the Amazon region. Yet gender roles and relationships are important components of key emerging forest-related issues, such as climate change and the differential risks and opportunities faced by women and men in different contexts. This paper reviews recent literature (in English, Spanish and Portuguese) that addresses gender and forests in Amazonia, focusing on: property rights in Amazonian territories and communities; diverse and changing gender relations; forest management programs; and womens participat...
State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain: Volume 1
The growth of institutional capacity in the developing world has become a central theme in twenty-first-century social science. Many studies have shown that public institutions are an important determinant of long-run rates of economic growth. This book argues that to understand the difficulties and pitfalls of state building in the contemporary world, it is necessary to analyze previous efforts to create institutional capacity in conflictive contexts. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the process of state and nation building in Latin America and Spain from independence to the 1930s. The book examines how Latin American countries and Spain tried to build modern and efficient state institutions for more than a century - without much success. The Spanish and Latin American experience of the nineteenth century was arguably the first regional stage on which the organizational and political dilemmas that still haunt states were faced. This book provides an unprecedented perspective on the development and contemporary outcome of those state and nation-building projects.
