The current thesis emphasizes sustainable strategies to achieve an industrial titer of bioethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass via biochemical conversion route. Preliminarily, structural carbohydrates content ...
Poly aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) along with nitrogen and sulfur heteroatoms are the main impurities in the fuel oil. These PAHs are the primary cause for air pollution due to the release of SOx and NOx during combustion of ...
Composting of biological waste is mainly governed by the diversity of microorganisms working intermittently or in succession in order to carry out the biochemical reactions for their metabolism. The rotary drum composting ...
Water hyacinth is considered to be the world’s worst aquatic due to its phenomenal reproduction potential. It can grow within a week and cover an entire freshwater body by forming thick dense mats. These thick dense mats ...
Heavy metals are extensively used for several applications, and as a consequence of which these metals are discharged into the environment from different sources. Owing to their non biodegradable and non persistent nature, ...
Adsorption technique for wastewater treatment is considered to be the most economically feasible method. Various literatures reported the removal of dyes, heavy metals, etc., by adsorbents such as activated carbon, fly ...
This thesis is aimed to find a solution for one of the environmental problems viz. increasing CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. The thesis focuses over this subject for the mitigation of CO2 through its utilization. ...
Flue gases emitted from coal-fired thermoelectric plants is responsible for up to 7% (v/v) of global CO2 emissions, about 10-15% (v/v) of the flue gases emitted from the power plants being in the form of CO2. Increased CO2 ...
A primary objective of ecological monitoring programs is to detect changes in ecosystem functions and processes. Healthy ecosystem functions are the key components to balanced ecosystem services.
Perchlorate contamination of the ground water, soil and surface water is a public health concern of recent times due to their detrimental effect of human health and other living entities. Therefore, its removal from ...
Superoxide dismutase is an important enzyme of the antioxidative defense system. It forms the first line of defense against reactive oxygen species and environment induced oxidative stress. Superoxide dismutase works in ...
Given the vulnerability of agricultural sector to variations in weather conditions, it will be one of the sectors most affected by climate change. This study assesses the state of climate change and variability in the ...
