Sommario/riassunto

"This book, written specifically for PHA Facilitators, is designed to offer the benefit of actual operations experience from a 15-year career in chemical production. This book looks at specific types of industrial equipment and their failure modes. For each type of equipment, historical failures are discussed with examples. Then, a checklist of questions is provided. The PHA facilitator should ask those specific questions of the PHA team when examining that specific type of equipment. Chapters include specific types of chemical-manufacturing



equipment, including distillation columns, boilers, centrifugal pumps, positive-displacement pumps, fluidized beds, etc"--

Sommario/riassunto

This edited volume provides a comprehensive view of the recent developments on Bacillus and their application in agriculture and allied sectors in a global scenario. Research articles sharing a consolidated state-of-the-art development in this area are solicited for this book. This book is a complete package covering all spheres of diversity and taxonomy, nutrient supplementation, biotic and abiotic stress management, biofilm and endophytic colonization, commercialization and regulatory mechanisms, etc. Descriptions of cutting-edge techniques and novel approaches on Bacillus research is also covered. A part of the book concentrates on the biotic and abiotic stress management in several important crops. It contains 11 contributory chapters from eminent experts in the field of life sciences specially microbiology, plant pathology and biotechnology working on different aspects of Bacilli and their application in agriculture and allied sectors. This book is useful for Graduate, Post-graduate students, research scholars, and post doctorate scholars of plant science, plant microbiology, soil microbiology and plant pathology discipline researchers, academicians, industrialists, policy makers.
