Extensive industrialization has led to an increased release of toxic metals into the soil and air. Industrial waste can include mine overburden, bauxite residue, and E waste, and these can serve as a source of valuable recoverable metals. There are relatively simple methods to recycle these wastes, but they require additional chemicals, are expensive, and generate secondary waste that causes environmental pollution. Biohydrometallurgical processing is a cost-effective and ecofriendly alternative where biological processes help conserve dwindling ore resources and extract metals in a nonpolluting way. Microbes can be used in metal extraction from primary ores, waste minerals, and industrial a...
Biopolymers are polymers that are naturally sourced from renewable resources such as plants, animals, and microorganisms. These polymers are gaining increasing attention due to their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and non-toxicity, making them an attractive alternative to traditional synthetic polymers. "Biopolymeric Nanoparticles for Agricultural Applications" focuses on the use of biopolymeric nanoparticles for various agricultural purposes. It explores the potential of these nanoparticles in improving crop productivity, enhancing soil quality, and reducing the environmental impact of agricultural practices. Biopolymeric nanoparticles have gained significant attention in recent years ...
This book presents a collection of peer-reviewed articles from the 7th International Conference on Microelectronics, Circuits, and Systems – Micro 2020. The volume covers the latest development and emerging research topics of material sciences, devices, microelectronics, circuits, nanotechnology, system design and testing, simulation, sensors, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, and its different applications. This book also deals with several tools and techniques to match the theme of the conference. It will be a valuable resource for researchers, professionals, Ph.D. scholars, undergraduate and postgraduate students working in Electronics, Microelectronics, Electrical, and Computer Engineering.
This book introduces many new concepts and tactics for monitoring and assessing aspects that contribute to environmental degradation. This book will also cover wastewater treatment, groundwater, and the use of GIS tools in waste management. Bioremediation methodologies and construction and demolition wastes will receive special attention. This book covers an assortment of waste utilisation methods, such as brick production and use in wastewater treatment units. This book is meant to be of significant use to students and researchers, industrialists and academicians working in the field of environmental engineering and sciences. This can also help many colleges and institutes throughout the world who have built new prospectuses and provide specialised courses on environmental and sustainable development. Lastly, this book will be useful to all policymakers, whether in government or commercial enterprises, for the correct planning and implementation of waste management programmes.
This book comprises select proceedings of the International Conference on VLSI, Communication and Signal processing (VCAS 2020). The contents are broadly divided into three topics – VLSI, Communication, and Signal Processing. The book focuses on the latest innovations, trends, and challenges encountered in the different areas of electronics and communication, especially in the area of microelectronics and VLSI design, communication systems and networks, and image and signal processing. It also offers potential solutions and provides an insight into various emerging areas such as Internet of Things (IoT), System on a Chip (SoC), Sensor Networks, underwater and underground communication networks etc. This book will be useful for academicians and professionals alike.
Exchange of information and innovative ideas are necessary to accelerate the development of technology. With advent of technology, intelligent and soft computing techniques came into existence with a wide scope of implementation in engineering sciences. Keeping this ideology in preference, this book includes the insights that reflect the ‘Advances in Computer and Computational Sciences’ from upcoming researchers and leading academicians across the globe. It contains high-quality peer-reviewed papers of ‘International Conference on Computer, Communication and Computational Sciences (ICCCCS 2016), held during 12-13 August, 2016 in Ajmer, India. These papers are arranged in the form of ch...
This book focuses on a number of recently created and successfully used bio/phytoremediation technologies for pollution reduction and control that were not given more thorough discussion in earlier works. The earth's crust contains heavy metals naturally as one of its constituents. The main cause of the discharge of harmful metals into the soil and aquatic habitats, aside from natural sources, is man-made activity, particularly industrialization. As a result of various human activities, excessive amounts of heavy metals—including chromium, arsenic, lead, mercury, copper, and zinc—are released into the environment. These metals eventually contaminate agricultural soils and water bodies an...
