Download Sustainable Rice Straw Management Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This open access book on straw management aims to provide a wide array of options for rice straw management that are potentially more sustainable, environmental, and profitable compared to current practice. The book is authored by expert researchers, engineers and innovators working on a range of straw management options with case studies from Vietnam, the Philippines and Cambodia. The book is written for engineers and researchers in order to provide them information on current good practice and the gaps and constraints that require further research and innovation. The book is also aimed at extension workers and farmers to help them decide on the best alternative straw management options in their area by presenting both the technological options as well as the value chains and business models required to make them work. The book will also be useful for policy makers, required by public opinion to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution, looking for research-based evidence to guide the policies they develop and implement.

Download Sustainable Rice Straw Management Using Pyrolysis-Extraction Process Towards Value-Added Products Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Rice straw, one of the main agricultural wastes of north of Iran, was utilized for extraction of two valuable products: high surface area activated carbon (AC) and nano-silica powder. The positive effect of silica extraction from activated rice straw ash on the porosity of resultant AC was determined. It was found that the performance of K 2 CO 3 was better than KOH for producing highly porous AC (2356 m 2 /g) under less severe conditions (relatively low impregnation ratio=1.5). The sensitivity analysis for several operating conditions was carried out, and the optimal conditions to reach the highest surface area, pore volume and silica extraction yield were determined for each chemical agent using Taguchi analysis. Among the factors changed, the highest contributions belonged to the impregnation ratio and activation temperature; therefore, other factors were selected based on economic considerations. The average production yield of activated carbon and silica from raw rice straw in this work was calculated around 9% and 7%, respectively. The average particle size of silica powder was estimated by SEM (around 35 nm) and DLS tests (200-300 nm), and an acceptable BET surface area and pore volume of 250 m 2 /g and 1 cm 3 /g, respectively, were obtained for this product.

Download Socioeconomic and Environmental Implications of Agricultural Residue Burning Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This book discusses the important issue of the socioeconomic and environmental impacts of agricultural residue burning, common in agricultural practices in many parts of the world. In particular, it focuses on the pollution caused by rice residue burning using primary survey data from Punjab, India. It discusses emerging solutions to agricultural waste burning that are cost-effective in terms of both money and time. The burning of agricultural residue causes severe pollution in land, water and air and contributes to increased ozone levels and climate change in the long term. However, appropriate assessments have not been undertaken so far to demonstrate the relevant impact of agriculture-based pollution, especially residue burning. This book addresses this gap in the literature. Punjab has been used as a case study as it is the chief granary of India, contributing to 27.2 percent of the Indian national produce of rice and 43.8 percent of wheat. It is presumed that the findings from this state will be useful not only for other agricultural areas in India, but across the world. This book, therefore, sensitizes policy makers, researchers and students about the impacts of air pollution caused by agricultural residue burning---a subject not much dealt in the literature---and provides a way forward.
