Lovetide: It Doesn't Have to Be Complicated

This book aims to provide some general understandings towards persons with visual disability as well as provide some contextual insights of their marriage, focusing on the phenomena of happiness. A common stigma surrounding persons with visual disability is that their lives might be filled with challenges, and thus facing difficulties in managing familial institution. The authors would like to provide a different perspective, focusing on the positive aspects of the lives of persons with visual disabilities, hence highlighting that such population is equal to the non-disabled. This book is divided into six chapters, which encompasses topics such as the theoretical viewpoints of happiness, the phenomena of marital happiness illustrated through three cases which include the dimensions and sources of marital happiness, as well as the strategies applied to improve or maintain marital happiness.

Waste Management, Processing and Valorisation

This book highlights current efforts and research on waste management, processing and valorization, particularly in Asia-Africa countries. Chapters 1–2 highlight the overview of plastic waste management and the production of waste plastic oil (WPO). Chapters 3–5 discuss the landfill characterization and application of incineration and composting for waste processing. A new achievement in adsorbent production is highlighted in Chapters 6 and 7 while Chapters 10 and 11 focus on sewage characteristic and its utilization using microalgae. Enzyme production using waste is covered by Chapters 10-12. Chapter 13-14 dedicated to the advances in production of bioenergy. The book concludes with a discussion on life cycle analysis for solid waste management (Chapter 15).

Biomass obtained from agricultural residues or forest can be used to produce different materials and bioenergy required in a modern society. As compared to other resources available, biomass is one of the most common and widespread resources in the world. Thus, biomass has the potential to provide a renewable energy source, both locally and across large areas of the world. It is estimated that the total investment in the biomass sector between 2008 and 2021 will reach the large sum of $104 billion. Presently bioenergy is the most important renewable energy option and will remain so the near and medium-term future. Previously several countries try to explore the utilization of biomass in bioe...

Ecological Chemicals as Ecosystem Function Mediators adn Potential Lead Pharmaeuticals

The relationship between functioning ecosystem services and human well-being has been established as a bridge connecting nature and society. It has also become a central pillar of sustainability science that dictates the paradigms ofbsustainable development. The conceptual framework that systematically integrates the important roles played by natural ecological chemicals by establishing empirical links between nature and ecology not only varies but lacks clear support. The value of ecological chemicals as ecosystem derived natural of products warrants explicit acknowledgement, only then trade- offs between services and prioritization of policy can be realised. In the last 20 years, important...
