  • Soil Remediation and Plants

    Prospects and Challenges

    Edited by Khalid Hakeem, Muhammad Sabir, Munir Ozturk, Ahmet Ruhi Mermut ...
    The soil is being contaminated continuously by a large number of pollutants. Among them, heavy metals are an exclusive group of toxicants because they are stable and difficult to disseminate into non-toxic forms. The ever-increasing concentrations of such pollutants in the soil are considered serious threats toward everyone's health and the environment. Many techniques are used to clean, eliminate ...

  • Mycoremediation and Environmental Sustainability

    Volume 1

    Edited by Ram Prasad ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Bioremediation is the use of microorganisms' metabolism to degrade waste contaminants (sewage, domestic, and industrial effluents) into non-toxic or less toxic materials by natural biological processes. Remediation through fungi—or mycoremediation—has multifarious possibilities in applied remediation engineering and the future of environmental sustainability. Fungi have the biochemical and ...

  • Soil Heavy Metals

    Edited by Irena Sherameti, Ajit Varma ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Human activities have dramatically changed the composition and organisation of soils. Industrial and urban wastes, agricultural application and also mining activities resulted in an increased concentration of heavy metals in soils. How plants and soil microorganisms cope with this situation and the sophisticated techniques developed for survival in contaminated soils is discussed in this volume ... Read more

  • Detoxification of Heavy Metals

    Edited by Irena Sherameti, Ajit Varma ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Heavy metals are severe environmental pollutants, and many of them are toxic even at very low concentrations. With industrial development, soil pollution with heavy metal elements have dramatically increased. The uptake of heavy metals via plants that are exposed to contaminated soils is a risk for human health and a major hazard for the ecosystem as a whole, including soil microorganisms. On the ...

  • Rangeland Desertification

    Edited by Olafur Arnalds, Steve Archer ...
    Series Book 19 - Advances in Vegetation Science
    Desertification has occurred worldwide. The biophysical and socio-economic complexity of this phenomenon has challenged our ability to categorize, inventory, monitor and repair the condition of degraded lands. One of the most important distinctions to be made in relation to land degradation is between cultivated land used for annual crop production and `rangelands'. Grazing by free-roaming ... Read more
