Environmental Approach to Remediate Refractory Pollutants from Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant

Environmental Approach to Remediate Refractory Pollutants from Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plants discusses the emerging trends in the bioremediation of hazardous pollutants found in wastewater, including the fate of pollutants produced after the treatment process both at the laboratory scale and at the industrial scale. Describing a broad area of biological processes and water research – considered key components for advanced water purification – it also includes the desalination technologies that remove, reduce, or neutralize water contaminants that threaten human health.

Exploring the unique biological aspects of the wastewater treatment process, the book highlights the advantages they provide for engineering applications in industry, with each chapter covering a different biological-based approach, examining the basic principles, practical applications, recent breakthroughs and associated limitations.

• Describes emerging technologies in industrial pollutants removal from wastewater
• Includes applications in treatment, remediation, sensing, and pollution prevention processes
• Discusses impacts on long-term quality, availability, and viability of water
