Synopsis

This book provides a methodical compilation of deriving composites from the hidden treasure of the aquatic world.Continuous and rapid progress in the composite industries have increased the demand for resilient, economically viable, and sustainable composite materials having enhanced mechanical , thermal and electrical properties which better suits there respective applications.If the materials/organisms used for the production or conversion of composites are renewable, degradable and easily and abundantly available then it gives great opportunity to the researchers to work on different options or processes to make them a viable technology. This work describes the organisms and materials present in the aquatic environment for the production of composite materials. Elaborating the versatile green expedients and their potential applications in the field of composites.  Since, growing ecological and environmental consciousness has driven efforts for development of new innovative materials for various end-use applications.Therefore the LCA an circular bio-economy will be discussed to be efficient and sustainable. This book is ideal for the students, academicians, researchers and industry players. It also cover the present scenario, applications and future perspectives of composites derived from aquatic organisms. This compiled book features chapters that discuss the conversion of different materials  and organisms present in aquatic environment to composite materials like micro-algae, seaweeds, chitosan, collagen, agar cyanobacteria etc.in a viable manner.

About the Author

Imran Ahmad is a PhD student at MJIIT, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. Currently working on the treatment of restaurant wastewater containing FOG using microalgae. Ahmad specialises in the cultivation and valorisation of freshwater microalgal species in varied conditions, especially with wastewaters. He has published his work in peer-reviewed journals, and book chapters, and attended and presented at more than 20 International conferences. Ahmad  has recently published a Handbook of Research entitled Algae as a Sustainable Solution for Food, Energy, and the Environment. Ahmad received the best presentation award at 5 International conferences. He received Algae Industry Incubation Consortium (AIIC), Japan grants award and My Membrane award, Malaysia in 2021. He was also the recipient of the Young Scholars grant awarded by the School of Post Graduate Studies, UTM. Ahmad has teaching experience of 8 years in AICTE-approved Engineering Colleges in India. Ahmad has student membership in the International Society for Applied Phycology (ISAP), International Water Association (IWA), Northeast Algal Society (NEAS), Ecological Society of America (ESA), British Phycological Society, and Northeast Algal Society (NEAS).
