Item Metagenomics to Bioremediation: Applications, Cutting Edge Tools, and Future Outlook(Elsevier, 2022-09-30T00:00:00) Kumar, Vineet; Bilal, Muhammad; Shahi, Sushil Kumar; Garg, Vinod KumarMetagenomics to Bioremediation: Applications, Cutting Edge Tools, and Future Outlook provides detailed insight into metagenomics approaches to bioremediation in a comprehensive manner, thus enabling the analysis of microbial behavior at a community level under different environmental stresses during degradation and detoxification of environmental pollutants. The book summarizes each and all aspects of metagenomics applications to bioremediation, helping readers overcome the lack of updated information on advancement in microbial ecology dealing with pollution abatement. Users will find insight not only on the fundamentals of metagenomics and bioremediation, but also on recent trends and future expectations. This book will appeal to readers from diverse backgrounds in biology, chemistry and life sciences. � 2023 Elsevier Inc.

Sunil Kumar; Anil, Amith G.; Khasnabis, Sutripto; Nath, Bidisha; U, Basavaraju; Kumar, Vineet; Garg, V.K.; Subramanian, S.; Singh, Joginder; Ramamurthy, Praveen C.A novel green nanocomposite has been prepared by immobilizing CaO nanoparticles (CaO NPs) on the surface of graphene oxide. Biogenic CaO-NPs were synthesized from Lala clamshells. Morphological and structural characterizations of the nanocomposite were studied extensively. The adsorption capacity (qmax) of the nanocomposite for removing Cr(VI) was 38.04 mg g?1. In addition to this, the adsorption data were adequately simulated with Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and pseudo-second-order models, suggesting that the adsorption process was the combination of external mass transfer and chemisorption. Electrostatic interaction was the dominant mechanism for Cr(VI) removal. In addition, the synthesized nanocomposites also serve as an excellent sensor for Cr(VI) sensing, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.02 ?M utilizing electrochemical methods. Therefore, this green nanocomposite can simultaneously serve as an adsorbent and sensor for Cr(VI)removal from aqueous solutions. � 2022 Elsevier LtdItem Omics for Environmental Engineering and Microbiology Systems(CRC Press, 2022-09-09T00:00:00) Kumar, Vineet; Garg, Vinod Kumar; Kumar, Sunil; Biswas, Jayanta KumarBioremediation using microbes is a sustainable technology for biodegradation of target compounds, and an omics approach gives more clarity on these microbial communities. This book provides insights into the complex behavior of microbial communities and identifies enzymes/metabolites and their degradation pathways. It describes the application of microbes and their derivatives for the bioremediation of potentially toxic and novel compounds. It highlights the existing technologies along with industrial practices and real-life case studies. Features: � Includes recent research and development in the areas of omics and microbial bioremediation. � Covers the broad environmental pollution control approaches such as metagenomics, metabolomics, fluxomics, bioremediation, and biodegradation of industrial wastes. � Reviews metagenomics and waste management, and recycling for environmental cleanup. � Describes the metagenomic methodologies and best practices, from sample collection to data analysis for taxonomies. � Explores various microbial degradation pathways and detoxification mechanisms for organic and inorganic contaminants of wastewater with their gene expression. This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in environmental engineering, soil remediation, hazardous waste management, environmental modeling, and wastewater treatment. � 2023 selection and editorial matter, Vineet Kumar, Vinod Kumar Garg, Sunil Kumar and Jayanta Kumar Biswas.
