Recent Advances in Food Biotechnology
This book highlights important aspects of food biotechnology. It is very thoughtfully divided into five sections. The first section introduces the readers to food biotechnology and discusses functional foods, use of plant and animal biotechnology in improving food quality. The second section deals with food microbiology and includes topics such as application of microbial surfactants, use of probiotics, beneficial microorganisms used in food industry etc. The third section describes important macro and micromolecules in foods. It includes chapters on food enzymes, gluten free formulations, use of biopolymers, biofortification of food and other important topics. The next section discusses novel technologies such as use of nanotechnology in food industry, reverse micelle techniques, genome editing in food crops etc. The book culminates with a section on food quality and management. It describes important topics about biosafety and regulatory issues in food biotechnology. This book is meant for students, researchers and course instructors in food science, food technology and biotechnology. It is also useful for industry experts in the area of food technology.
Industrial Water Treatment Process Technology
Industrial Water Treatment Process Technology begins with a brief overview of the challenges in water resource management, covering issues of plenty and scarcity-spatial variation, as well as water quality standards. In this book, the author includes a clear and rigorous exposition of the various water resource management approaches such as: separation and purification (end of discharge pipe), zero discharge approach (green process development), flow management approach, and preservation and control approach. This coverage is followed by deeper discussion of individual technologies and their applications. - Covers water treatment approaches including: separation and purification—end of discharge pipe; zero discharge approach; flow management approach; and preservation and control approach - Discusses water treatment process selection, trouble shooting, design, operation, and physico-chemical and treatment - Discusses industry-specific water treatment processes
Advances in Computational and Bio-Engineering
This book gathers state-of-the-art research in computational engineering and bioengineering to facilitate knowledge exchange between various scientific communities. Computational engineering (CE) is a relatively new discipline that addresses the development and application of computational models and simulations often coupled with high-performance computing to solve complex physical problems arising in engineering analysis and design in the context of natural phenomena. Bioengineering (BE) is an important aspect of computational biology, which aims to develop and use efficient algorithms, data structures, and visualization and communication tools to model biological systems. Today, engineering approaches are essential for biologists, enabling them to analyse complex physiological processes, as well as for the pharmaceutical industry to support drug discovery and development programmes.

Agricultural Biomass for the Synthesis of Value-Added Materials
This book is a comprehensive guide to bioconversion approaches based on microorganisms and enzymes for the valorization of underused wastes of diverse categories to produce new products. Optimized conditions for microbial and enzymatic valorization are discussed, along with related biotechnological considerations, environmental considerations, bioprocess development, obstacles, and future outlooks. Biofuels, bioenergy, and other platform chemicals are only some of the products that can be produced through this book's explanation of the microbiological processes involved in the bioconversion and valorization of wastes.
Advanced Bioseparation of Industrial Wastes
Advanced Bioseparation of Industrial Wastes: Sustainable Recovery of High-Value Metal Ions examines resource recovery from a variety of industrial waste streams, including sludge and wastewater, with an emphasis on both the fundamentals and the more advanced concepts involved. Chemical leaching, waste treatment, and other processes for metal extraction are broken down into their component parts in great detail. Several important metals, such as lithium, copper, gold, platinum, nickel, zinc, chromium, uranium, cobalt, rhodium, and indium, could be salvaged from recyclables. This book presents the best practices for dealing with waste from industries such as those involved in the production of...
Environmental Friendly Green Technologies for Improvement of Heavy Crude Oil Flow Assurance
This book focuses on microbial prevention, the employment of specific segregated microorganisms which can be environmental-friendly and efficient technique for both prevention and degradation of wax in pipelines and during enhanced oil recovery (EOR). The demand for oil and gas as a primary source of energy is expected to reach to about 110 million barrels per day by 2040. Discovery of new conventional oil fields has declined, while its demand has risen rapidly in the last decade as crude oil still remains the primary source of energy. Hence, oil industries face a challenge of increasing production and transportation of crude oil from reservoirs which are unconventional. Reservoir to refiner...
