Biotechnological Approaches for Sustainable Environment Management by Sudhir P. Singh (Hardback)
Biotechnological advancements offer approaches for sustainable environmental management, owing to their capacity to tackle various environmental issues, including pollution, waste management, and resource conservation. The state of the environment is continually deteriorating due to industrialization and different human actions. Innovations must be pursued to mitigate the detrimental impact of environmental pollutants. The ubiquitous presence of microbial resources offers vast potential for developing technologies aimed at reducing the levels of harmful substances contaminating the environment. This book is focused on biotechnological applications designed to address environmental challenges associated with industrial effluents, plastic and biological wastes. The chapters in the book emphasize the microbial agents that are helpful in managing industrial and agricultural wastes.
About the Author: Prof. Sudhir Pratap Singh is a Professor of Industrial Biotechnology at Gujarat Biotechnology University, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. The focus of his research is gene mining, biocatalyst engineering and characterization to produce high-value rare sugar and functional biomolecules, such as D-allulose, trehalose, turanose, prebiotic oligosaccharides, resistant starch, etc. Dr. Singh has published over 80 research articles in SCI journals. He has edited 10 books, published by international publishers. The scientific contributions of Prof. Singh have been recognized by several prestigious scientific honours, e.g. TATA Innovation Fellowship, DBT, Govt. of India (2024), Associate Fellowship, Indian Science Academy (2024), Fellow, National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, India (2023), Prof. SB Chincholakar Award, BRSI (2023-24), Gandhian Young Technological Innovation Award to the team, SRISTI (2019), Professor Hira Lal Chakravarty Award, Indian Science Congress Association, DST (2018), SBS-MKU Genomics Award, BRSI (2016-17), and Young Scientist Award, International Bioprocessing Association (2016-17).Dr. Jyoti Singh Jadaun, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in Dayanand Girls' P.G. College, affiliated to CSJM, University, Kanpur since 2017.
