Quick ViewDespite the fact that water covers two-thirds of the Earth’s surface, it is surprisingly vulnerable to human influence and activity. Marine ecosystems receive large amounts of a variety of pollutants from either treated or untreated wastewater. The extensive use of chemicals and their introduction into the environment has resulted in increased public concern for the…

Quick ViewWorks related to identification of harmful exhaust components from aviation engines have continued since the second half of the last century. These works focus on high-thrust turbine engines. For this, group testing and standardization procedures have been developed containing the admissible limits of exhaust components. Since 2007 works have been underway related to the identification…

Quick ViewThis book is a compilation of information on airborne microalgae and cyanobacteria. This includes a survey of the literature, biology and ecology of airborne algae, mechanisms involved in their aerosolization, the role of environmental factors in shaping the structure and composition of aero-algal communities, and information on methodological approaches used to study airborne algae. It…

Quick ViewNatural ecosystems provide the basic conditions without which humanity could not survive. Goods and services provided by ecosystems include, for example, provisions of food, fibre and fuel, purification of water and air, cultural and aesthetic benefits, stabilization and moderation of the Earth’s climate, generation and renewal of soil fertility, including nutrient cycling or maintenance of…

Quick ViewThis book provides an overview of biodegradation. The first chapter provides a detailed description on the ability of Rhodococcus UKMP-5M to act as a biological tool to remediate phenol, chlorinated compounds, nitrile, oil spillage and cyanide which selection was primarily based on their large-scale presence in industrial wastewater. Chapter Two presents advances made in recent…

Quick ViewAir pollution has been recognized as the world’s top problem in many strategic environmental policies. However, it is still inadequately corroborated by regulatory monitoring due to the balance between costs and practicable constraints. The variability in air pollution patterns additionally emphasizes a need for feasible approaches to extensive screening of pollutants. To achieve highly temporally…

Quick ViewThe rapid development of industry and technology, the increased demand for using fossil fuels and exploitation of primary raw materials in recent years calls into question sustainability of progress in today’s society. Air quality in the world has become one of the leading factors that affect human health, and also inevitably, the condition of the…

Quick ViewIn this book, the biosorption process used to produce biological components of fertilizers was examined. For this purpose, the waste biomass obtained from the supercritical fluid extraction of oils from multiple berries’ seeds was used. It was shown that post-extraction residues of black currant, raspberrys and strawberry seeds constitute a valuable material for agricultural purposes.…

Quick ViewAnthropogenic activities and pedogenesis of soils derived from ultramafic rocks have caused heavy metal contamination worldwide. During the last two decades, phytoremediation has emerged as a potential eco-friendly tool to clean up heavy metal contaminated environments. However, various climatic stresses (e.g. drought, extreme temperature, etc.) can affect physiobiochemical activities of remediating plants as well as…

Quick ViewSoil pollution receives less attention when compared to air pollution and water pollution. However, soil pollution is grabbing more attention nowadays. Undoubtedly, soil is an indispensable environmental matrix for the growth of any terrestrial plants. Nevertheless, the rapid growth rate of population expansion and urbanization exceeds the sustainability and recovery capability of the ecosystem. This…

Quick ViewThis book focuses on water purification by micelle-clay nano-particles. The micelle-clay complex is composed of an organic cation (surfactant) with a long alkyl chain, e.g., ODTMA (octadecyltrimethylammonium) that spontaneously forms micelles of several nm in diameters at small concentrations. The positively charged micelles interact with a negatively charged clay (bentonite) at optimal ratios. The resulting…

Quick ViewThis book presents important research advances in the study of water pollution, as well as marine pollution, river pollution, lake pollution, water purification, cruise ship pollution and the acidification of the earth’s oceans. Topics discussed herein include wastewater treatment; removal of halogenated hydrocarbons from water; environmental biomonitoring; marine debris; petroleum pollution; envirometrics as a tool…

Quick ViewLatin America is one of the most diverse but also vulnerable regions in the world that is under continuous anthropogenic pressure due to increasing urban, industrial and agricultural developments. Although there are many research groups studying the impacts caused by those pressures, the results and conclusions obtained by many of them are largely unknown because…
