Microbial Wastewater Treatment focuses on the exploitation of microorganisms as decontaminating tools to treat polluted wastewater, a worldwide concern.
This book focuses on the water-energy-climate nexus, which can be used to improve energy security and quality of life for millions of people in developing countries.
In the context of climate change and fossil fuel pollution, solar energy appears as a cheap and sustainable fuel for many environmental applications, yet the efficiency of techniques has to be improved.
This contributed volume takes a holistic view of the international waste trade and in doing so argues that the transfer of plastic waste from mainly Global North to primarily Global South countries constitutes a form of 21st Century colonialism.

This volume provides a comprehensive method for optimizing solid waste management practices and procedures at college and university campuses through the use of cluster analysis to combine Life Cycle Assessment and Analytical Hierarchy Process.
During late 1978, a symposium entitled "e;Science Underlying Radioactive Waste Management"e; was one component of the Annual Meet- ing of the Materials Research Society held in Boston, Massachusetts.
This book presents a wide range of synthesis and characterization techniques to produce ceramic nanomaterials specially developed to be used in environmental applications.
The term "e;hazardous wastes"e; covers a wide range of disused products and production wastes generated not only in industrial sectors, but also in all areas of everyday life.
The reader receives information on electrical gas cleaning systems as they are operated in power plants, steel works, cement works, chemical plants, CHP plants and biomass power plants.
Environmental issues are playing an increasingly important role in the textile industry, both from the point of view of government regulation and consumer expectations.
This book covers emerging areas in novel design and their hydrodynamic properties relevant to bioreactors, environmental system, electrochemical systems, food processing and biomedical engineering.
Water in the MEDA region is a crucial issue, with regard to the availability of ren- able water resources in the MEDA countries most will face even more serious pr- lems in the management of their limited water resources in the near future.
Winner of the International Solid Waste Association's 2014 Publication Award, Handbook of Recycling is an authoritative review of the current state-of-the-art of recycling, reuse and reclamation processes commonly implemented today and how they interact with one another.
