As we enter a new millennium, the environmental issues faced by
both developing and industrialised nations are as pressing as ever.
Environmental biotechnologies are increasingly being viewed as a
major weapon against environmental damage. Cleaner production is
part of this strategy and yet there is still widespread ignorance
about this emerging technology. Environmental Biotechnology and
Cleaner Bioprocesses provides this information at various levels,
from introductory to advanced. The first section covers the
development of cleaner bioprocesses within the framework of
sustainable development. Aspects of environmental policy for small
and medium businesses are then discussed using case studies to
illustrate principles. The second section covers the recycling and
treatment of organic waste, including the use of aquatic plants and
microalgae for wastewater treatment and recovery of nutrients.
Section three covers bioremediation technologies and finally,
section four is dedicated to emerging cleaner bioprocesses and
environmentally sound products. All chapters have been written and
edited by leading authorities in the field. Students and
professionals interested in environmental biotechnology and cleaner
production will find the background information and detail they
require in this one convenient source.
...a book worth having on the shelf to give a different perspective to many issues in environmental biotechnology. - J Chem Technol Biotechnol
This concise book reviews the various types of neglect in
childhood, providing an operational definition that incorporates
existing viewpoints. It describes risk factors for neglect to
increase awareness for improved identification, prevention, and
treatment of this pervasive problem. This is particularly important
as neglect is a growing worldwide issue which receives less
attention than more florid forms of abuse. The book aims to
facilitate conceptualization and treatment of adult clients who
have suffered neglect as well as treatment plans for at risk home
environments.
