Fulfilling the increasing energy demand is a global challenge. Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) can be a resource if we can efficiently convert it into renewable energy. MSW can be converted into Bio gas & Bio fertilizer by an environmental friendly, cost effective & safe technology called Anaerobic Digestion. Bio gas is a combustible gas which can be used widely both for domestic & industrial purpose. Bio fertilizer is a bio organic soil enricher which contains high level of nutrients. This book provides a complete account of manufacturing process, technology selection, process control,...

Slow-Release Fertilizer (SRF) is an improved variety of fertilizer which is developed through appropriate product design. It is unique by its chemical & physical properties, environmental safety & its stability against mechanical stress, hygrometry & temperature. It can be applied less frequently, making them more cost-effective and save time & labor. Hence, the necessity for SRFs with the release of nutrients over extended period of time is increasing continuously with population growth, particularly in developing countries. This book aims therefore to help policy makers & planners in this...
