Microbial Biostimulants for Plant Growth and Abiotic Stress Amelioration, the latest release in the Biostimulants and Protective Biochemical Agents series, provides readers with insights into the major role of biostimulants in plant growth and development while under abiotic stress. The term biostimulants is broadly used to reference a group of diverse substances and microorganisms that stimulate life or that promote favorable plant responses. They stimulate natural processes to enhance/benefit nutrient uptake, nutrient efficiency, tolerance to abiotic stress, and crop quality.Many biostimulants improve nutrition and they do so regardless of their own nutrient contents. Further, recently microbe-based biostimulants have emerged as important plant protectors under a range of adverse conditions.

Presents the potential for more environmentally sustainable interventions against abiotic stressesHighlights the variety of applications for which biostimulants are proving effectiveIncludes coverage of commercialization and role in addressing Sustainability Development Goals

Recent Trends in Solid Waste Management presents comprehensive information on recent advances in solid waste treatment and management processes. The book covers a wide range of topics related to solid waste treatment, disposal and handling. Readers will also learn about up-to-date/background information on global annual solid waste generation and effective waste management strategies (recycle, reuse, remediate). Furthermore, future study directions (open questions) are identified. This book will assist both the academic and industrial communities by providing extensive information on waste separation procedures and technologies for solid waste treatment. Covers a wide range of topics related to solid waste treatment methods, including new treatment systems Provides a thorough overview of the processing and disposal of solid and hazardous waste generated during the COVID-19 pandemic Highlights innovative technologies that make it easier to recover value-added materials and generate bioelectricity from solid waste
