This book addresses all aspects related to the production process, including chemical formulas, stability of formulations, and the application of the effect of its utilization. Over the past decade, biobased chemicals have received significant attention as candidate resource materials in fertilizers and agrochemicals production due to their renewability.
Substitution of conventional raw materials with biobased requires a new approach towards the development of technology. On the other hand, the use of biobased chemicals, such as biostimulants, bioregulators and biofertilizers offers a new palette of products that are natural, thus their application does not pose an impact on the environment (residues) or cultivated plants.
- Presents ideas for new products that provide appropriate nutrition while limiting environmental footprints
- Includes a full range of the production process, from chemical formulas to establishing the stability of formulations, applications and effects
- Offers a host of new products that are natural and whose applications do not negatively impact the environment nor cultivated plants
