The industrialization, urbanization, advancement in technologies and increasing population has been a major cause of release of various types of pollutants in the environment. Taking into consideration heavy metals pollution and organic solid waste generation, an attempt has been made to remove heavy metals from industrial effluents using various organic solid wastes by biosorption process. Total 14 organic wastes of plant and animal origin were selected for the remediation of effluents collected from different industries. The adsorption isotherm models was used to study the mechanism of biosorption process. The results obtained were supported by using biostatistical analysis. Some organic wastes were also used to biosynthesize metal nanoparticles. The current study showed effective results on the pilot scale. The future prospect includes largescale synthesis of metal nanoparticles in ecofriendly manner which may minimize the current methods of metal nanoparticle synthesis that are costly and cause pollution. The present work may help in exploring the applications of organic solid wastes.

This monograph forms an interdisciplinary study in atomic, molecular, and quantum information (QI) science. Here a reader will find that applications of the tools developed in QI provide new physical insights into electron optics as well as properties of atoms & molecules which, in turn, are useful in studying QI both at fundamental and applied levels. In particular, this book investigates entanglement properties of flying electronic qubits generated in some of the well known processes capable of taking place in an atom or a molecule following the absorption of a photon. Here, one can generate Coulombic or fine-structure entanglement of electronic qubits. The properties of these entanglements differ not only from each other, but also from those when spin of an inner-shell photoelectron is entangled with the polarization of the subsequent fluorescence. Spins of an outer-shell electron and of a residual photoion can have free or bound entanglement in a laboratory.
