Food wastage has become a major problem with about one third of all food produced for human consumption going to waste, leading to major socioeconomic and environmental consequences in an increasingly resource-constrained world. This volume embraces integrated management as a solution to food and agricultural wastage. It presents methods to lessen, reuse, recycle, and manage wastage by merging and employing a variety of suitable methods, equipment, and organizational plans.The volume begins with a global overview of the characterization of food and agricultural wastes. It then delves into using food processing applications that use byproducts as sources of valuable bioenergy and recoverable products. It explores methods for reducing, reusing, and recycling waste along with basic and modern environmental practices for food and agricultural waste management. Chapters discuss food waste management in conjunction with enhancing food security and sustainability and management strategies that offset the impact of food and agricultural wastes on the environment. Finally, the book looks at the challenges and opportunities that are associated with food and agricultural waste management across the globe.

This new volume explores important recent approaches and advanced techniques for the effective management and treatment of wastewater. The book provides a range of diverse techniques for achieving optimum water quality management, for restoration of water bodies, for the improvement of a circular water economy, and for effective water reuse.Many of the new methods and technologies included in the book focus on sustainable phytoremediation techniques, such as the use of earthworms, ecological floating beds, and anaerobic biovalorization. The book also comprehensively discusses the scope of nanomaterials for wastewater treatment. Some of the least explored aspects of water quality improvement, such as use of eco-roofs, the role of remote sensing in water quality management, and biosand filters for household wastewater treatment, are discussed as well.

Erosion control is a priority in the agriculture, construction, and conservation industries, as well as in land development applications. The everyday processes involved in these industries can often result in erosion and have a significant adverse impact on the surrounding ecology. These harmful impacts can be minimized by erosion control. This new book explores the erosion concerns and solutions for dealing with them. It addresses the impact and effects of changing land use and land cover on soil erosion and methods of assessing erosion, as well as ways to control different types of erosion. The use of models such as the WEPP model for estimating runoff and sediment yield, along with models to estimate runoff production patterns and soil erosion hazards are detailed. The book also discusses artificial neural networks and machine learning techniques (random forest), remote sensing data, and GIS for mapping soil erosion.
