Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Biomass-Derived Materials for Environmental Applications presents
state-of-the-art coverage of bio-based materials that can be
applied to address the growing global concern of pollutant
discharge in the environment. The book examines the production,
characterization and application of bio-based materials for
remediation. Organized clearly by type of material, the book
includes details on lignocellulosic materials, natural clays,
carbonaceous materials, composites and advanced materials from
natural origins. Readers will find an interdisciplinary and
practical examination of these materials and their use in
environmental remediation that will be valuable to environmental
scientists, materials scientists, environmental chemists, and
environmental engineers alike.

Green Technologies for the Defluoridation of Water focuses on the
application of green technologies for the defluoridation of water
using adsorption processes and nanoadsorbents. Chapters cover the
environmental and health effects of fluoride presence in ambient
air, food, water, soil and vegetation, focus on approaches for
analytical methods to determine the presence of fluoride in water,
review various types of conventional and advanced techniques used
for removal, focus on adsorption as a green technology, review
various types of adsorbents, and emphasize a techno-economic
assessment with respect to conventional and non-conventional
technologies. This book provides readers with comprehensive methods
and applications, while also presenting the global impacts of
fluoride ion on the environment, including in drinking water, food,
air, soil and vegetables. The authors compare different
defluoridation technologies in detail, providing researchers in
environmental science and nanotechnology fields with the
information they need to create solutions on how to safely remove
fluoride from water in a sustainable and cost-effective way.
Advances in Nano-fertilizers and Nano-pesticides in Agriculture: A
Smart Delivery System for Crop Improvement explores the use of
nanotechnology for the controlled delivery of pesticides,
herbicides and fertilizers that improve the safety of products
while also increasing the efficiency of food production and
decreased environmental pollution. The development of nanodevices
such as smart delivery systems to target specific sites, as well as
nanocarriers for chemical controlled release are currently
important aspects in novel agriculture and require a strong
foundation of understanding, not only the technology, but also the
resulting impacts.
Open innovation has revolutionized the way businesses adapt to
situations, handle problems, and interact with other corporations.
Establishing these collaborative business practices has the
potential to support and improve business operations across fields,
which makes further study vital in order to properly implement the
best practices and techniques. As open innovation continues to
develop and provide businesses with numerous opportunities for
growth, it is crucial to understand and address the trends and
challenges of innovation for business and countries' economic and
social development. Impact of Open Innovation on the World Economy
is an essential reference source that provides examinations on
issues of open innovation in the context of organizations and its
links to entrepreneurship, strategy, and marketing. The book
further provides necessary resources to adopt and implement new
business and social solutions. Covering a range of topics such as
firm performance and business collaborations, this reference work
is ideal for entrepreneurs, managers, technology developers,
policymakers, researchers, academicians, practitioners,
instructors, and students.
