Description
Advances in Industrial Wastewater Treatment Technologies: Removal of Contaminants and Recovery of Resources identifies emerging technologies that allow for reuse throughout the wastewater treatment cycle. In anticipation of the next generation of biological treatment technologies driven wastewater treatment plants, this book focuses on the reuse and regeneration of wastewater through an innovative and applied approach of treatment processes. The book emphasizes various aspects related to wastewater management, treatment technologies, water reuse, biosolids production and management, water quality, regulations, economics, public acceptance, risk assessment, benefits, keys for success and main constraints, and stresses the importance of an activated sludge process.- Demonstrates state-of-the-art wastewater treatment technologies- Highlights the importance of treatment technologies for better reuse of wastewater- Discusses removal of various emerging contaminants through different processes to clean up the environment from pollution- Provides an updated vision of existing treatment process strategies with their limitations and challenges and their potential applications for the removal of pollutants in the environment and from industrial effluent
