255 pages. : ill ; 24 cm.
Ký hiệu phân loại (DDC): 540
The widespread uses of chemicals and hazardous toxics in industrial activities have resulted in polluting and degrading ecosystems. A wide range of chemicals like pesticides, fertilizers and oil spills contaminate natural resources and have adverse effects on environment and health. The book presents a detailed account on disposal and treatment of chemical pollutants. It provides various tools and techniques to detect, test and reduce the ill effects of toxic chemical compounds. Students and researchers will find this book beneficial.

Alternative energy has emerged as an area of interest worldwide. The vision of producing fresh, sustainable power from renewable energy sources is becoming a significant subject. This is accelerated by current technological advancements that have enhanced the cost-effectiveness of many renewable sources and by the rising concern for the ecological impact and sustainability of conventional fossil and nuclear fuels. This book presents a complete comprehension of the primary renewable energy sources with a broad variety of case studies for each source. It explains the physical and technical facets, and examines the ecological impact of renewable sources and their potential prospects.

Environment and photosynthesis : A future prospect / Vijay Pratap Singh...[et al]
New Delhi : Studium Press, 2018
814 pages. : illustrations ; 24 cm.
Ký hiệu phân loại (DDC): 363.7
This comprehensive book describes the basics of photosynthesis, how life was originated and what significant changes were made after origin of photosynthesis, the differences in bacterial and higher plants' photosynthesis and the evolution and interrelation of different components of photosynthetic machinery. In this chain, different fossil records were provided to put the origin and evolution of photosynthesis beginning from cyanobacteria to higher plants. This book briefed the past hypothesis in research of photosynthetic and the changing mind-sets regarding photosynthesis in recent and future. The book includes different views regarding the effect of different environmental factors on thyllakoid membranes, photosynthetic pigments, reaction centres, antenna system, electron transport chain, photosystems, carbon fixation reactions, Rubisco, etc., under prevailing conditions in the current scenario. The modern technique i.e. fluorescence has also been discussed, which is ecofriendly and generally used to know the performance of PS II photochemistry and to pinpoint the target sites of particular environmental stress. This book includes adaptation strategies including activity of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant compounds and recovery of photosynthetic apparatus under adverse conditions. Then the broad range of mechanisms including genetic engineering by engineering the photosynthesis-related genes, have been argued to improved the photosynthetic efficiency of plants to encounter the prevailing conditions as well as to improve the quality and quantity of crops by some growth promoting substances implied for the welfare of human beings.
