Advanced
Materials for Wastewater Treatment and Desalination: Fundamentals to
Applications offers a comprehensive overview of current progress in the
development of advanced materials used in wastewater treatment and
desalination. The book is divided into two major sections, covering both
fundamentals and applications.
This book:
- Describes
the synthesis and modification of advanced materials, including metal
oxides, carbonaceous materials, perovskite-based materials,
polymer-based materials, and advanced nanocomposites
- Examines relevant synthesis routes and mechanisms as well as correlates materials' properties with their characterization
- Details new fabrication techniques including green synthesis, solvent-free, and energy-saving synthesis approaches
- Highlights
various applications, such as removal of organic contaminants,
discoloration of dye wastewater, petrochemical wastewater treatment, and
electrochemically-enhanced water treatment
With
chapters written by leading researchers from around the world, this
book will be of interest to chemical, materials, and environmental
engineers working on progressing materials applications to improve water
treatment technologies.
