Book Description
This publication is a sequel to the 'International Source Book on Environmentally Sound Technologies for Municipal Solid Waste Management'. The urgent need for information on how to deal with wastewater is clearly shown by the fact that nearly 3 billion people are without adequate sanitation and its impact on health, medical bills, consequent loss of economic productivity and environmental degradation. This publication is not a solution to the complex water and sanitation problems faced by many nations, but it does bring together experiences and ideas from all regions of the world. Planners and managers will find this guide useful as it provides many possibilities and contacts.

Sustainable Technologies for Water and Wastewater Treatment
Author: Noel Jacob KaleekkalPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000395006
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
Sustainable Technologies for Water and Wastewater Treatment discusses relevant sustainable technologies for water and wastewater treatment pertaining to a nanoscale approach to water treatment and desalination, membrane-based technologies for water recovery and reuse, the energy and water nexus, degradation of organic pollutants, nascent technologies, bio and bio-inspired materials for water reclamation and integrated systems, and an overview of wastewater treatment plants. The book focuses on advanced topics including in situ generation of hydroxyl radicals, which can aid in the indiscriminate oxidation of any contaminant present in wastewater, making advanced oxidation processes commercially viable. Features: A comprehensive review of current and novel water and wastewater treatment technologies from a sustainability perspective All the sustainable technologies, such as desalination, wastewater treatment, advanced oxidation processes, hydrodynamic cavitation, membrane-based technologies, sonosorption, and electrospun fibers Discussion on reference materials for important research accomplishments in the area of water and environmental engineering Theoretical aspects covering principles and instrumentation A summary on sustainability, including life cycle assessment (LCA), energy balance and large-scale implementation of advanced techniques This book is aimed at professionals, graduate students, and researchers in civil, chemical, environmental engineering, and materials science.
Water and Wastewater Reuse

ISBN:
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
Water scarcity and water pollution pose a critical challenge in many developing countries. In urban areas, it is becoming difficult for the authorities to manage water supply and wastewater. Strategies for water and wastewater reuse can improve urban water management. This publication provides introductory guidelines for these strategies. The important aspects to minimize public health risks are identified. The possibilities of wastewater reuse in agriculture, industry, urban uses, and environmental water enhancement including groundwater recharge are discussed with the help of practical examples. The capacity building policy-making, institutional strengthening, financial mechanisms, and awareness raising and stakeholder participation are vital to implement these strategies for wastewater reuse.--Publisher's description.

International Consultation on the Transfer and Implementation of Environmentally Sound Technologies for Water Quality Management in the Mekong River Basin
Author: UNEP International Environmental Technology CentrePublisher: United Nations Publications
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Consists primarily of papers presented at the conference. Water quality management has been identified as a high priority issue for the Mekong River Basin. Although water quality, especially in the main stem of the Mekong River, is mainly good, rapid development in the basin including urban growth, industrialization, deforestation, and agricultural expansion and intensification, have the potential to degrade water quality within the basin. Already serious problems have emerged in the Delta region.
