Montalbo, Olusoji Anthony Ayeleso, Grace Jokthan and Aizebeoje Balogun Vincent.This book highlights all the core aspects of the synthesis, characterization, and applications of biosorbents such as bionanocomposite, together with their recent advances in detail. Also, some new research and developments in biosorbents, such as bionanocomposite. It presents some of the recent principles of the synthesis, fabrication, and characterization of bionanocomposite and their applications, as well as some important tools and challenges associated with these techniques for engineers and scientists. Hence, it is the first of its kind in the environmental and material science domain to explore a facile and all-inclusive approach to the applications of biosorbents such as bionanocomposite along with their future prospects and advantages.The book will be reference material for scientists and researchers as well as students working in the field of environmental science, material science agricultural, nanotechnology, bioremediation technology, soil biology, etc.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.Kingsley Eghonghon Ukhurebor is a lecturer/researcher and the present acting head of the Department of Physics at Edo State University, Uzairue, Nigeria, and a research fellow at the West African Science Service Center on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use (WASCAL), Competence Center, Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, a Climate Institute sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, Germany.
