Series Editors: Brujo Kishore Mishra and Raghvendra Kumar
Environment is an important issue these days for the whole world. Different strategies and
technologies are used to save the environment. Technology is the application of knowledge to
practical requirements. Green technologies encompass various aspects of technology which
help us to reduce the human impact on the environment and create ways of sustainable develop-
ment and social equability. This book series will enlighten green technology in different ways,
aspects and methods. This technology helps people to understand the use of different resources
to fulfill needs and demands. Some points will be discussed as the combination of involuntary
approaches, government incentives and a comprehensive regulatory framework will encourage
the diffusion of green technology. Least developed countries and small island developing states
require unique support and measures to promote green technologies.

Preface
In the world of sustainable development, green innovations have emerged as a trail-
blazing approach. Currently, management of various waste materials has become a
critical issue and the most sustainable approach for the management of this waste
is to accept it as a resource or to choose a sustainable green technology in order to
utilize the resource in such a way that produces the least amount of waste. In this
view, waste can also be placed in the category of renewable resources. This book
highlights the economic viability of green innovations and their social and technical
challenges in effective implementation. Some of the field examples have also been
included and discussed extensively in this book. This book shall provide a line of
approach to core and interdisciplinary students, academicians, research scientists,
environmentalists, policy makers and various industry personnel to present their
ideas of green innovations with a common vision of sustainable development of com-
munities and industries. This book covers both the process enhancement (Part I) and
sustainable approaches (Part II) towards green technology.
Part I of the book exclusively discusses the process enhancement of green tech-
nology wherein the readers can become acquainted with the state of the art of current
technologies with the view to making engineering and industrial processes efficient,
optimized and ecofriendly as well as economical. The chapters cover various engi-
neering processes, biological synthesis, development of novel techniques and pro-
cess augmentation for enhanced production. Chapters in this section may be cited by
students and researchers of various disciplines and especially those who are working
in interdisciplinary areas. The book can prove even more useful for a technology-ori-
ented workforce with a scientific background. The motivation for chapters included
in Part I is to render specific knowledge of current best techniques and processes
which have been discovered in recent times and are already receiving the interest of
industrialists.
Part II of the book conciliates policy makers, implementing agencies and people
working for the social development sector, and of course engineers. This part of the
book has adopted chapters which are centered upon sustainable approaches in engi-
neering and technology. Chapters included in Part II adopt the overall perspective
of challenges and optimization of various engineering technologies and familiarize
the readers with the world of possibilities. This book does not have the structure of a
regular textbook, so one can start to read any chapter according to their understand-
ing of green technologies, interests and preferences.
