Sustainable Technologies for Remediation of Emerging Pollutants from Aqueous Environment

Sustainable Technologies for Remediation of Emerging Pollutants from Aqueous Environment compiles and collates several advanced technologies for purification of water and wastewater. The book covers biological purification of wastewater, the use of adsorbents for decontamination of water, the role of membrane technology and its composites for removing emerging pollutants, and application of advanced oxidation processes (AOP) for removal of emerging pollutants. It provides a single source solution to academician's, and young researchers with latest information about the application of the conventional and non-conventional in water and wastewater purification. Presents global impacts of pollutants in water environment including organic pollutants, inorganic pollutants, and biological contamination Compares in detail removal mechanisms of emerging pollutants by different purification technologies Applies conventional and non-conventional techniques to water and wastewater purification processes INDICE: Part 1.
