This book focuses on advances in environmental research. Chapter 1 covers methods and approaches to be used for compost tea production, factors affecting tea quality, application methods and potential benefits of compost tea application in crop production. Chapter 2 highlights the importance of certain enzymatic systems in bioremediation and their role in restoring ecological balance. Chapter 3 examines the various functions of plant growth-promoting microorganisms (PGPMs), such as bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes, in facilitating nutrient uptake, supporting plant development, and triggering systemic resistance to both abiotic and biotic stresses. Chapter 4 analyzes the development and application of ETA sludge adsorbent to remove color and phenolic compounds from synthetic effluents. Chapter 5 delves into the mechanisms by which fungi break down and transform complex dye molecules, highlighting the role of enzymatic activity, including ligninolytic enzymes like laccases, manganese peroxidases, and versatile oxidases. Chapter 6 examines the impact of public-private partnerships’ investment in energy (PPPIE) and various environmental factors on the advancement towards Sustainable Development Goal7 (SDG7) in Southeast Asian (SEA) nations from 1999 to 2021, utilizing principal component regression (PCR). Finally, Chapter 7 focuses on circular economy approaches to the management of municipal solid waste (MSW).
