Bioremediation of Emerging Contaminants from Soils: Soil Health Conservation for Improved Ecology and Food Security
Editat de Prasann Kumar, Veena Chaudhary, Eric D. van Hullebusch, Rosa Busquets, Arun Lal Srivastaven Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 mai 2024
Designed to highlight soil health best practices for both environmental and agricultural sustainability, these approaches are also considered important for improving global food security by ensuring safe growing conditions for crops for food and feed.?Presented in two parts, this book first highlights emerging contaminants and their sources.?The second part explores a variety of steps and tools for addressing contaminated soils, including bio- and phytoremediation options.?Case studies in each part provide real-world insights for practical application.
- Contains the latest practical and theoretical aspects of the soil health crisis and its management
- Presents collective information to ensure the remediation of soil from emerging contaminants
- Serves as baseline information for environmental issues in agriculture along with their alternative eco-friendly solutions
