Description

This book presents a broad range of technologies for sustainable agrochemistry, e.g. semiochemicals for pest management, nanotechnology for release of eco-friendly agrochemicals, and green chemistry principles for agriculture. It provides a concise introduction to sustainable agrochemistry for a professional audience, and highlights the main scientific and technological approaches that can be applied to modern agrochemistry. It also discusses various available technologies for reducing the negative impacts of agrochemicals on the environment and human health.

Author Biography:

Dr. Sílvio Vaz Jr. holds a D.Sc. degree in Analytical Chemistry from the University of São Paulo, Brazil, and a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Coimbra, Portugal. Having previously served as director and partner at two private environmental analysis laboratories, he is currently a research scientist at the National Research Center for Agroenergy - Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa Agroenergy), where his work focuses on the development of renewable molecules (e.g., agrochemicals) and the application of analytical chemistry to biomass and bioenergy, as well as green and sustainable chemistry. He has previously published the books “Analytical Techniques and Methods for Biomass” (2016) and “Biomass and Green Chemistry: Building a Renewable Chemistry” (2018) and "Analytical Chemistry Applied to Emerging Pollutants" (2018). He was appointed as the chairman of the Brazilian Division of the American Chemical Society.
