This book discusses the recent advances in the wastes recycling technologies to provide low-cost and alternative ways for nanomaterials production. It shows how carbon nanomaterials can be synthesized from different waste sources such as banana fibers, argan (Argania spinosa) seed shells, corn grains, camellia oleifera shell, sugar cane bagasse, oil palm (empty fruit bunches and leaves) and palm kernel shells. Several nanostructured metal oxides (MnO2, Co3O4,….) can be synthesized via recycling of spent batteries. The recovered nanomaterials can be applied in many applications...

This book explains the integration of data of different support in Geostatistics. There is a common misconception in the mining industry that the data used for estimation/simulation should have the same size or support. However, Geostatistics provides the tools to integrate several types of information that may have different support. This book aims to explain these geostatistical tools and provides several examples of applications. The book is directed for a broad audience, including engineers, geologists, and students in the area of Geostatistics.
