This important reference presents recent advancements in applied microbial technology, compiling it in a comprehensive manner and transferring applied microbial technology from laboratory conditions to field level. In 20 chapters, the book focuses on microbial interventions for all-inclusive, cost-effective environmental management tactics while also linking the cumulative microbial services involved in the up-gradation of agriculture, environment and health.
In addition, the book offers detailed information on emerging environmental issues and proposes ways of controlling their consequences using different approaches to treatment.
- Provides conceptual information and recent advances in microbial services involved in enhancing environmental sustainability
- Offers potential solutions for a variety of problems like low agricultural productivity, emission of harmful contaminants from both natural and anthropogenic sources, and disease development in plants and humans
- Contains applied, in-depth knowledge on microbial contributions as bio-inoculants, enzymatic sources and antimicrobials
