Advances in Renewable Natural Materials for Textile Sustainability promotes sustainable practices in the textile industry through exploring the use of natural materials in textile production. The book delves into the advantages of using natural materials at every stage of textile processing, from fiber production to textile wet processing (dyeing, printing, finishing), and recycling after end use. The chapters provide critical discussions on natural materials for functional and smart textiles, sustainable methods of their preparation, application, and environmental impact of using biobased materials. It also discusses opportunities and challenges.

With its comprehensive coverage, this book is an essential resource for professionals, researchers, and academics in the textile industry and anyone interested in sustainability in the fashion and textiles. It offers valuable insights for readers who want to make more informed choices and contribute to a more sustainable future.

This book offers an in-depth examination of wetland ecosystems, delving into their intricacies from three critical perspectives—limnological, bio-geochemical, and economic. It takes an interdisciplinary approach, seamlessly merging insights from limnology and bio-geochemistry to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the complex interactions between organisms and chemical processes in wetlands. It notably emphasizes the economic significance of wetlands, advocating for sustainable practices to preserve their value. This aspect makes the book a valuable resource for policymakers, stakeholders, and professionals involved in wetland conservation. It addresses contemporary issues like nutrient cycling, pollutant dynamics, and the role of wetlands in climate regulation by incorporating the latest research and case studies in the field. The book will equip readers with up-to-date insights into the challenges and opportunities surrounding wetland ecosystems.
