Full Description
This book covers the various sources, the role of treatment technologies, system-associated factors, and future challenges with reference to microplastics in wastewater treatment plants. It also introduces microplastics, their sources, governing factors, microbial diversity effects, and possible control approaches to minimize the exposure of microplastics to human beings. Modelling and distribution of microplastics, environmental sinks, bioindicators, and microplastics as vector in wastewater treatment units are also discussed.
Focuses on microplastic pollution, mechanism of removal, treatment technologies, pathways, and fate in wastewater treatment system
Discusses the factors linked to dispersion, survival, and removal efficiency of microplastics in wastewater treatment systems
Helps understand 'microplastics removal'-centric sustainability aspects of wastewater treatment systems
Explores the fate of microplastics in sludge-handling systems
Incorporates comparative case studies from developed and developing nations
This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in environmental science and engineering, water resources management, wastewater, and chemical engineering.
