etc., used for environmental clean-up of toxic metal(loid)s.
This book covers pharmaceutical residue dispersion in the aquatic
environment and its toxic effect on living organisms. It discusses
conventional and advanced remediation technologies like the use of
biomaterials for the sequestration of contaminants, nanotechnology,
and phytoremediation. The book includes topics like the removal of
pharmaceutical and personal care product residues from water
bodies, green chemistry, and legal regimen for pharmaceuticals in
the aquatic environment. it also covers the application of modified
biochar in pharmaceutical removal. Key Features:• Explores the
management of environment through green chemistry • Describes
phytoremediation technology for decontamination of pharmaceuticals
laden water and wastewater • Covers the detection methods and
quantification of pharmaceutical residues in various contaminated
sources • Discusses ecotoxicological aspects and risk assessment
of pharmaceuticals in aquatic environment • Reviews degradation
and treatment technologies including nanotechnology, biomaterials,
biochar The book is meant for pharmaceutical, toxicology, and
environmental science industry experts and researchers.
This reference book compiles up-to-date research about the threat
and management of pharmaceutical residue dispersion in the aquatic
environment. It explores the risk analysis and short- and long-term
health issues created due to the ingestion of
pharmaceutical-contaminated food products and drinking water. The
book focuses on the methods of removal and degradation processes of
pharmaceutical residues from contaminated sources. It emphasizes
the importance of eco-friendly and advanced treatment technology
for the sustainable management of wastewater and drinking water
supply. The book is meant for industry experts and researchers in
pharmaceutical science, toxicology, and environmental sciences.
Includes recent research and development in the areas of omics and
microbial bioremediation Covers the broad environmental pollution
control approach such as metagenomics, metabolomics, fluxomics,
bioremediation, and biodegradation of industrial wastes Reviews
metagenomics and waste management, and recycling for environmental
cleanup Describes the metagenomic methodologies and best-practices,
from sample collection to data analysis for taxonomies Explores
various microbial degradation pathways and detoxification
mechanisms for organic and inorganic contaminants of wastewater
with their gene expression
Green Chemistry Approaches to Environmental Sustainability: Status,
Challenges and Prospective provides a comprehensive and complete
overview of the emerging discipline of green chemistry and
fundamental chemical principles. The book bridges the gap between
research and industry by offering a systematic overview of current
available sustainable materials and related information on new
materials' suitability and potential for given projects. Along the
way, the book examines natural and biodegradable materials while
also presenting materials with multifunctional properties. Topics
addressed in this book will be major accomplishments for
sustainable developments in biofuels, renewable energies, and in
the remediation of pollutants in water, air and soil.
Pesticides: Human Health, Environmental Impacts and Management
considers microbial degradation and environmental management of
pesticides, covers microbial options as an alternative to chemical
pesticides, explores plant-microbe interactions for reduced
applications of pesticides in the agricultural fields, discusses
the enhancement of microbial pesticides degradation, explains
function of engineered microorganisms for effective pesticide
degradation, describes potential indigenous/effective microbes for
effective pesticide degradation processes, and presents research on
microbes for sustainable agricultural and environmental practices.
This book is a compilation of process, technologies and value added
products such as high value biochemicals and biofuels produced from
different waste biorefineries. The book is sectioned into four
categories providing a comprehensive outlook about zero waste
biorefinery and technologies associated with it. The emerging
technologies that potentially put back the lignocellulosic waste,
municipal solid waste and food waste into intrinsic recycling for
production of high value biochemicals and bioenergy, along with
associated challenges and opportunities are also included. The
content also focuses on algal biorefineries leading to sustainable
circular economy through production of broad spectrum of bioactive
compounds, bioethanol, biobutanol, biohydrogen, biodiesel through
integrated biorefinery approach. The volume also includes chapters
on conversion technologies and mathematical models applied for
process optimization. A sound foundation about the underlying
principles of biorefineries and a up-to-date state-of-the-art based
overview on the latest advances in terms of scientific knowledge,
techno-economic developments and life cycle assessment
methodologies of integrated waste biorefinery is provided. This
volume will be of great interest to professionals, post-graduate
students and policy makers involved in waste management,
biorefineries, circular economy and sustainable development.
Metagenomics to Bioremediation: Applications, Cutting Edge Tools,
and Future Outlook provides detailed insight into metagenomics
approaches to bioremediation in a comprehensive manner, thus
enabling the analysis of microbial behavior at a community level
under different environmental stresses during degradation and
detoxification of environmental pollutants. The book summarizes
each and all aspects of metagenomics applications to
bioremediation, helping readers overcome the lack of updated
information on advancement in microbial ecology dealing with
pollution abatement. Users will find insight not only on the
fundamentals of metagenomics and bioremediation, but also on recent
trends and future expectations. This book will appeal to readers
from diverse backgrounds in biology, chemistry and life sciences.
The present work focuses on the development of hydrodynamically
balanced delivery system of Aceclofenac as a single-unit floating
Tablet. Floating effervescent tablets were formulated by various
materials like. HPMC, K4M, K 15M, psyllium husk, swelling agent as
crospovidone and micro crystalline cellulose and gas generating
agent like sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. Floating non
effervescent tablets were prepared by polypropylene foam powder and
different matrix forming polymers. The prepared floating tablets
were evaluated for various Parameter. The formulation was optimized
on the basis of in vitro buoyancy and in vitro release By fitting
the data into different models, we concluded that the mechanism of
release of Aceclofenac from the floating tablet was anomalous
diffusion transport and follows zero order kinetics, Stability
studies revealed that formulations were stable when stored at
different temperatures and the values were within permissible
limits. X ray imaging studies results showed that tablet was float
more than 8 h in gastric region of the Albino rabbits.
This revised edition planning is one of the fastest growing segment
of information technology today, and it enables organizations to
respond quickly to the ever increasing customer's needs.
