This volume offers the latest theory, procedures, techniques and
applications pertaining to the bioremediation of pesticides, as
well as current case studies. The book is composed of chapters
written by global experts and is divided into three topical
sections. Section A deals with concepts and mechanisms of
pesticides bioremediation; Section B examines latest tools and
techniques; Section C offers global case studies of pesticides
bioremediation. The novel methods described here are timely, as
traditional pesticide usage leads to high wastage via decay,
vaporization and seepage. This of course leads to environmental
contamination and has necessitated the development and use of novel
technologies like bioremediation for minimizing the impact of
pesticides on the environment. This volume will be of relevance to
academics, researchers and students who are working in the realm of
pesticide bioremediation, and will enable policy makers and
managerial experts across the globe in drafting policies and
strategies for the management and treatment of pesticides.

The present work covers many aspects of plant nematode management
using organic strategies. These range from applications of latest
understandings of fundamental concepts/mechanisms of nematode
control, to modern tools and techniques used in efficacy
evaluation. The Volume also includes some case studies/applied
aspects of organic nematode pest management. Chemical and physical
control measures used for nematode management have their own
implications. Against this backdrop, organic management of plant
nematodes appears as a more rational and sustainable approach.
However, concise information on the current topic is scarce. This
book is a sincere effort to bridge this void as we aim to provide
the most updated, critical and in-depth knowledge synthesized by
many experts working in the field of plant nematology, worldwide.
The edited book brings out a comprehensive synthesis of latest
scientific literature covering various important aspects of
anaerobic biodigesters for human waste management that ranges from
latest understanding on fundamental concepts/mechanisms of
anaerobic biodigestion, modern tools and techniques used in process
evaluation, current strategies being recruited for the performance
enhancement, and case studies/ success stories across the world on
applications of biodigesters used in human waste treatment. The
anaerobic biodigestion is a process of break-down of organic waste
by anaerobic microorganisms in absence of the oxygen. This process
has been conventionally used for treating various types of organic
waste including sewage sludge. After optimizing various process
parameters, researchers have developed anaerobic biodigesters that
have been successfully used for human waste (nigh soil) treatment.
The topic of human waste treatment assumes global significance in
the wake of UN sustainable Development Goals (SDG) wherein SDG-6
specifically highlights the Sanitation for all by 2030. The
anaerobic Biodigester technology has the potential to manage the
human waste as well and can contribute immensely in achieving
targets of UN-SDG-6. This book is of interest to researchers,
academicians, scientists, policy officials and capacity builders.
Also the book serves as additional reading material for
undergraduate and graduate students of environmental Biotechnology.
National and international biotechnologists, environmental
engineers and sanitation experts also find this to be a useful
read.
