Produktbeschreibung

Environmental Nexus Approach: Management of Water, Waste, and Soil establishes linkages between environmental resources, such as water, waste, and soil, in order to facilitate sustainable management of these resources. It shows the nexus approach as a policy-relevant means of environmental management by focusing on integrated management of water, waste, and soil resources. It synthesizes interdisciplinary theory, concepts, definitions, models, and findings involved in complex global sustainability problem-solving, making it an essential guide and reference. It includes real-world examples and applications making the book accessible to a broader interdisciplinary readership.

Features:

1. Explores cutting-edge developments in the environmental nexus approach of water, waste, and soil.
2. Introduces the key mechanisms regarding antibiotic resistance genes, microplastics, and other emerging contaminants in the water, waste, and soil nexus.
3. Investigates the fate and behavior of heavy metals, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, plastics, and pesticides in soil systems and their risk assessment.
4. Provides insights into the latest developments, current research perspectives, technology development, critical thinking, and societal requirements of the environmental nexus between water, waste, and soil.

This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in environmental science and engineering, environmental engineering, and waste management.

Autorenporträt

Sartaj Ahmad Bhat is working as JSPS Postdoctoral Researcher at the River Basin Research Center, Gifu University, Japan. His primary research focuses on the development and evaluation of treatment technologies for organic waste and wastewater from domestic and industrial outlets as well as organic waste recycling, with a focus on the biological and sustainable treatment by earthworms. Vineet Kumar is presently working as a National Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Microbiology, School of Life Sciences at Central University of Rajasthan, Rajasthan, India. His research work mainly focuses on the development of integrated and sustainable treatment techniques that can help in minimizing or eliminating hazardous waste in the environment. Fusheng Li is a Professor in the Graduate School of Engineering at Gifu University, Japan. Prof. Li is directing the Division of Water Quality Studies that covers the fields from water quality to water and wastewater treatment, and recently to resource and energy recovery from organic waste. Fuad Ameen is an Associate Professor and Researcher at the Department of Botany and Microbiology, College of Science, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He graduated his Ph.D. on biodegradation of urban waste by mangrove fungi from King Saud University, Saudi Arabia. After that, he has been involved in many kinds of projects dealing with new solutions to treat polluted sites. Sunil Kumar is a well-rounded researcher with more than 22 years of experience in leading, supervising, and undertaking research in the broader field of Environmental Engineering and Science with a focus on Solid and Hazardous Waste Management.
