This book examines a wide range of emerging sources of water pollution. It consists of thirteen chapters dedicated to the topic, giving readers comprehensive information about the types of contaminants involved and the solutions for their removal.
The first five chapters present an analysis of the emerging water pollutants, their toxicities, and the legislations available to monitor and regulate their emissions. This introduction is followed by 3 chapters that cover risk assessment of emerging pollutants, their fate and life cycle assessment. The last section of the book goes through the details of remediation technologies for wastewater treatment.
This reference is equally suitable for academia, industry professionals and students, presenting state-of-the-art learnings on emerging water pollutants and their remediation methods.
