Impact of water pollution on coconut cultivation in Vellore district, Tamil Nadu -- Solid waste management in Vellore district, Tamil Nadu -- Nitrate reduction by denitrifying Bacillus cohnii isolated from sewage treatment plant -- A mini review on Cyanophycin: Production, analysis and its applications -- A statistical based experimental approach for biodegradation and optimization of heavy metals -- Wastewater treatment studies on free water surface constructed wetland system -- Utilization of medicinal oil effluent for lipase production by Penicillium -- Waste water sludge treatment using rice bran -- Role of NGO's in protecting environment and health -- A study on self-sacrificing role played by garbage pickers in cleaning up the environment -- Impact of dairy effluent on environment - A review -- Treatment of waste water from meat industry -- Waste management in food packaging industry.

This book provides insights into the current status of waste management in India and research approaches to minimize waste and convert useful waste into energy alternatives towards achieving environmental sustainability. It also discusses the implications of waste on human health and approaches to minimize the burden. Waste disposal, especially municipal solid waste (MSW), is one of the major environmental problems facing Indian cities. Inadequate management of MSW poses risks to inhabitants and is also a breeding ground for various diseases. Environmental health and the impact of waste on health is another major topic that has to be addressed. In India, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and social welfare groups play a major role in collecting and managing waste. However, waste management is still a huge problem and has also expanded into rural areas. Contributed research papers from academic studies and industry focus on applied waste-management methods currently being practiced, waste strategies and ecofriendly approaches such as bioremediation. The outcomes of the research contributions in the book will be useful in implementing and developing a task force to combat the waste-management and energy-demand crises.
