Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Plantation crop residues are a significant waste product of modern horticulture. These residues, derived from numerous plantation crops, such as cocoa, coffee, rubber, tea, areca nuts, palmyra palm, and coconut, are usually left to decompose, leading to environmental degradation, groundwater pollution, and health hazards. However, with the growing demand for sustainable agricultural practices, innovative approaches are necessary to utilize these residues. This book aims to comprehensively explore the potential of plantation crop waste valorization, showcasing innovative technologies and applications that transform waste materials into value-added commodities, biofuels, and platform chemicals for a sustainable economy.

Plantation  Crop Wastes: Valorization for Economic Sustainability addresses various aspects of the plantation crop waste-to-wealth paradigm and will be a valuable resource for academics, researchers, policymakers, and industry professionals seeking sustainable solutions for the management of plantation crop waste.
