Couverture de l’ouvrage Phytomanagement of Fly Ash

Phytomanagement of Fly Ash brings together the recent and established knowledge of different aspects of fly ash management, providing a cutting-edge synthesis of scientific and experiential knowledge on contaminated site restoration. Phytomanagement of Fly Ash provides readers with ecologically friendly and cost-effective solutions to decontaminate fly ash polluted sites, along with potential opportunities in phytoremediation that also yield biodiesel, aromatic oil, bio-fortified products and pulp-paper biomass. The book also focuses on novel topics, such as afforestation on fly ash catena, adaptive management, potential sink for carbon sequestration, and ecosystem goods and services.

This book is a useful reference for environmental professionals in the coal industry, ecological planners and managers, students, practitioners and policymakers involved in phytoremediation.

Dr. Vimal Chandra Pandey isan applied research scientistinternationally recognized for his research in the area of Phytomanagement of polluted sites.He is listed as the World's Top 2% Scientists, announced by Stanford University, California, United States, and published by Elsevier BV, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. Dr. Pandey's research focuses mainly on the remediation and management of heavy metal-polluted lands and post-industrial lands, using ecologically and socio-economically valuable plants, to regain ecosystem services and support a bio-based economy as phytoproducts. His research interests also lie in fostering phytoremediation for utilizing polluted lands and thereby attaining the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Dr. Pandey's phytoremediation work has led to the extension of phytoremediation beyond its traditional application. He is now engaged in exploring commercial phytoremediation with the least risk, minimum input, and low maintenance for the rehabilitation and revegetation of fly ash dumpsite, red mud dumpsite, coal-mined sites, etc. Dr. Pandey worked at CSIR-National Botanical Research Institute, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, and the Council of Science and Technology, Uttar Pradesh (CSTUP), Lucknow, India. He is the recipient of several awards/honors/fellowships. Dr. Pandey is a member of the IUCN Commission on Ecosystem Management and the National Academy of Sciences, India. Dr. Pandey has published over 114 scientific articles/book chapters in peer-reviewed journals/books. He is also the author and editor of several books published by Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, and CRC Press, with several more forthcoming. Dr. Pandey is Associate Editor/Editor/Academic Editor/Board Member of journals such as Land Degradation and Development; Restoration Ecology; Ecological Processes; Environment, Development, and Sustainability; Ambio; Environmental Management; Discover S
