Questo articolo non è disponibile.Earthworm Technology in Organic Waste Management: Recent Trends and Advances (Waste And The Environment: Underlying Burdens And Management Strategies)

Earthworm Technology in Organic Waste Management: Recent Trends and Advances is a suitable contribution to the Waste and The Environment: Underlying Burdens And Management Strategies series that will be helpful in classifying and broadly addressing assessments, mitigation strategies, and the management of organic wastes using earthworms. In addition, the book provides a summary of the latest findings on emerging pollution-related issues, their sustainable management, and future perspectives. The book covers recent trends and developments in organic waste management, including the use of earthworms in municipal and industrial waste management, the role of earthworms in vermifiltration/vermiwash, and of vermicompost in crops.

Finally, the book covers the potential of earthworms in the remediation of emerging contaminants. This includes antibiotic resistance genes, heavy metals, pesticides, microplastics, and other emerging pollutants that are not covered in-depth in previously published titles.

Kui Huang is a professor and department chairman of specializing in the subject of environmental ecological engineering at the School of Environmental and Municipal Engineering, Lanzhou Jiaotong University, China. He received his PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Gifu University, Japan in 2014. He served as a researcher for the River Basin Research Center at Gifu University for two years before joining Lanzhou Jiaotong University in 2015. His teaches courses including water engineering construction and environmental ecological engineering. His research interest involves fundamental and applied aspects of biological contaminant reduction, aerobic biodegradation process, water quality safety in river basin, and organic solids recycling, with a focus on biological and sustainable treated system of wastes by earthworms.

Dr. Sartaj Ahmad Bhat is working as a JSPS Postdoctoral Researcher at the River Basin Research Center, Gifu University, Japan. He received his Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences from Guru Nanak Dev University, India, in 2017. His primary research focuses on the development and evaluation of treatment technologies for organic waste and wastewater from domestic and industrial outlets as well as organic waste recycling, with a focus on the biological and sustainable treatment by earthworms. He has published over 60 papers in peer-reviewed journals and co-edited 13 books.
