Metals in Soil
  • Language: en
  • Pages: 90

Metals in Soil

The anthropogenic input of metals into the atmosphere is estimated to be one-to-three orders of magnitude higher than natural fluxes. Soil acts as the primary sink for anthropogenic metals among the environmental spheres. Most metals show indefinite persistence in the ecosphere due to resistance against microbial or chemical-assisted degradation. This edited book is an attempt to compile reviews and case studies from different researchers focusing on different aspects of soil contamination by metals and its subsequent remediation. The book's contents will be useful for researchers and strategists interested in the environmental aspects of soil contamination.

Water Stress in Plants

Water Stress in Plants

Water stress in plants is caused by the water deficit, as induced possibly by drought or high soil salinity. The prime consequence of water stress in plants is the disruption in the agricultural production, resulting in food shortage. The plants, however, try to adapt to the stress conditions using biochemical and physiological interventions. The edited compilation is an attempt to provide new insights into the mechanism and adaptation aspects of water stress in plants through a thoughtful mixture of viewpoints. We hope that the content of the book will be useful for the researchers working with the plant diversity-related environmental aspects and also provide suggestions for the strategists.

Soil Contamination

This edited volume, Soil Contamination - Recent Advances and Future Perspectives, provides a comprehensive overview of soil contamination. Chapters address such topics as using biochar to improve soil quality, electrochemical analysis of pesticides and heavy metals in the environment and food, nitrate leaching in soils, the ability of bacteria to remove heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and much more. This book is a useful resource that opens new possible research paths for further novel developments in the field.

Advances and Challenges in Microplastics

Advances and Challenges in Microplastics

Plastics are crucial materials that are used in daily life. They are manufactured and used until they become waste that negatively impacts the environment and public health. These plastic wastes break down into small particles known as microplastics (MPs) via changes in environmental conditions (i.e., sunlight, temperature, weathering, and irradiation). This reduction in size increases the toxic potential of MPs. This book provides a comprehensive overview of MPs, including the challenges and advances in their effective removal from our environment.

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs)

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs)

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are toxic organic compounds that resist environmental degradation through biological, chemical, and photolytic processes. Many POPs are currently used as pesticides, pharmaceuticals, solvents, and industrial chemicals. Because of their persistence, POPs bioaccumulate and adversely affect human health and the environment. Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) - Monitoring, Impact and Treatment deals with several aspects of POP monitoring, occurrence, impact, and treatment technologies. The book is divided into two sections containing nine chapters that address such topics as the effect of POPs on wildlife, their role in hepatocarcinogenesis, treatment of POPs in wastewater, and much more.

Marine Pollution

This book discusses marine pollution. It includes 10 chapters that attempt to answer the questions of how to reduce marine pollution and what really can be done to improve the quality of the sea. Topics addressed include microplastics, the dispersion of oil in the sea, contamination by potentially toxic elements (PTEs), and much more.
