Recent Trends and Advances in Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things (Intelligent Systems Reference Library #172)
by Raghvendra Kumar Valentina E. Balas Rajshree SrivastavaThis book covers all the emerging trends in artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT). The Internet of Things is a term that has been introduced in recent years to define devices that are able to connect and transfer data to other devices via the Internet. While IoT and sensors have the ability to harness large volumes of data, AI can learn patterns in the data and quickly extract insights in order to automate tasks for a variety of business benefits. Machine learning, an AI technology, brings the ability to automatically identify patterns and detect anomalies in the data that smart sensors and devices generate, and it can have significant advantages over traditional business intelligence tools for analyzing IoT data, including being able to make operational predictions up to 20 times earlier and with greater accuracy than threshold-based monitoring systems. Further, other AI technologies, such as speech recognition and computer vision can help extract insights from data that used to require human review. The powerful combination of AI and IoT technology is helping to avoid unplanned downtime, increase operating efficiency, enable new products and services, and enhance risk management.

Recent Trends and Applications of Leguminous Microgreens as Functional Foods
by Piyush Mathur Astha GuptaMicrogreens are the name given to the small, soft, green parts of plants that develop from seedlings and do not bear any real leaves. These microgreens are known to have high nutritional content and are composed of phytoconstituents such as carotenes, phenolics and polysterols which allow for their usage in dietary programs. Legumes provide high nutritional value by enhancing dietary fibre, vitamins and minerals, and are one of the most important sources of plant protein in the human diet. Leguminous microgreens can play a significant role in fulfilling the nutritional requirement of world’s population and will assist in completing the United Nations' global goal of 'zero hunger' (Sustainable Development Goal 2). Recent Trends and Applications of Leguminous Microgreens as Functional Foods provides an in-depth look at the development of leguminous microgreens, such as chickpea, lentils, beans and peas. It covers potential germplasm containing high iron and zinc levels; biomass and nutritive traits that can be used to produce a bio-fortified functional food with appropriate proportions of nutritive components. The book also discusses the increasing interest in production and consumption of microgreens due to their nutritional content, yield rate, rapid production time frame and aroma qualities among other factors. The book also covers management methods for production of biofortified food through conventional, molecular and biotechnological approaches such as hydroponics and aquaponics systems. Additionally, it contains assessments on safety during storage as well information on how to develop value-added products that can supplement food needs/requirements. This book is a valuable tool for anyone looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of this growing sector within agriculture and will provide readers with all they need to know about developing leguminous microgreens for enriched functional foods.

Recent Trends and Developments in Algal Biofuels and Biorefinery (Environmental Science and Engineering)
by Soumya Pandit Navneeta Bharadvaja Lakhan Kumar Srijoni Banerjee Raksha AnandThis book presents technoeconomic challenges, recent trends, and developments toward sustainable algal biofuels and biorefinery. The exponential increase in population and thus the demand for energy, the ever-rising threats to climate change with conventional fossil fuels consumption, fluctuations in fossil fuels price and geopolitical instability have made each and every country of the world to think over its energy independence and security by increasing its own domestic energy production and reducing dependence on scarce fossil fuels. The global need to shift towards a sustainable source of energy has led to the discovery of third and fourth generation biofuels, in which microalgae and their genetically modified strains have been exploited. However, these simple photosynthetic organisms are difficult to select and cultivate for the production of biodiesel. Genetic engineering has opened provisions for the introduction of desired traits to such useful strains. There are also scopes for designing of novel photobioreactors (PBRs) having strain-specific physicochemical parameters, adequate CO2 and nutrient supply, and so on. The role of microalgae in CO2 sequestration from the environment is well known fact. Wastewater treatment plants can be used a raceway pond for the microalgal biomass production, and thus, obtained biomass can be used for biofuels and biochemical production. Mathematical modelling can be used to understand the complex phenomena inside the photobioreactor, which can be a great help to overcome the limitations related to design and scale up of PBRs. Flow hydrodynamics in PBRs has significant effect on the microalgae growth. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be used to study operating and geometry factors in PBRs that influence the flow dynamics, such as the inlet gas flow rate, mixing, mass transfer, reactor geometry. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) particularly artificial neural network model (ANN model), statistical and evolutionary learning-based techniques are some innovative approaches in manipulating and optimizing productivity and costs in algal biofuel production. This book is aimed to bring several aspects of algal biorefinery and microalgal biofuel production, challenges, and future perspective of microalgal biofuel production at a single place.
