  • Prosopis Juliflora

    Attributes, Impact, Utilization

    by Pratiksha Patnaik, Tabassum Abbasi, S. A. Abbasi ...
    Prosopis (Prosopis juliflora) is a xerophyte which, in its native habitats has been a desert plant. As long as it was confined to that habitat, P. juliflora was a great resource, improving the region's micrometeorology, binding its sandy soil, and providing shelter, fuel, feed, food, medicines, and cosmetics to the people of such regions. In particular, for the economically weaker inhabitants, P ... Read more

  • Biogas Energy

    by Tasneem Abbasi, S.M. Tauseef, S.A. Abbasi ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    In recent years, the importance of biogas energy has risen manifold and has become universal. This is due to the realization that biogas capture and utilization has great potential in controlling global warming. By capturing biogas wherever it is formed, we not only tap a source of clean energy, but we also prevent the escape of methane to the atmosphere. Given that methane has 25 times greater ...
