Resource Recovery in Drinking Water
Treatment concentrates on techniques and methods for water purification.
The book develops a new approach—resource recovery—toward drinking
water, including the role of methods (adsorption, membrane, ion –
exchange, biosorption, coagulation, etc.) and nanocomposites (such as
biochar, sludge-based composites, chitosan, polymer, magnetic particles,
etc.) in water resource recovery. It provides an in-depth overview on
emerging water treatment techniques and the resource recovery of
materials during the treatment process. Finally, the book aims to
introduce polluted waters as new and sustainable sources rather than
seeing wastewaters only a source of hazardous organic and inorganic
matters.
This book is part of a
three-volume set that stresses the importance of contaminated water
remediation, including surface waters, municipal or industrial
wastewaters, and waters as a new source of nutrients, minerals and
energy.
- Presents novel approaches to recover materials from water during treatment
- Discusses fundamentals and principals of water treatment to figure out current status and need for new development
- Includes applications of various composites and particles in water treatment and water recovery
