About this title

Synopsis

Current Developments in Biotechnology and Bioengineering: Emerging Organic Micropollutants summarizes the current knowledge of emerging organic micropollutants in wastewater and the possibilities of their removal/elimination. This book attempts a thorough and exhaustive discussion on ongoing research and future perspectives on advanced treatment methods and future directions to maintain and protect the environment through microbiological, nanotechnological, application of membrane technology, molecular biological and by policymaking means.

In addition, the book includes the latest developments in biotechnology and bioengineering pertaining to various aspects in the field of emerging organic micropollutants, including their sources, health effects and environmental impacts.

Includes testing methods for the analysis and characterization of emerging organic micropollutants in wastewater
Discusses the environmental impact and health hazards of emerging organic micropollutants in wastewater
Provides a useful guide to identify priority areas of research demand in the remediation/removal of emerging organic micropollutants
