Water Treatment and Pollution Prevention: Advances in Research reviews the most up-to-date studies in the field of water pollution. More specifically, this book examines the causes and effects of this threatening phenomenon and identifies the preventive measures that can be taken to contain, and even to defeat, water pollution worldwide. The papers gathered in this volume pinpoint the need to implement greener water treatments to prevent water pollution from impacting ecosystems, human well-being and economies any further. They also successfully outline the processes that have been studied, optimized and developed so far to sustain our environment. Water Treatment and Pollution Prevention: Advances in Research will represent a valuable source to scientists and researchers in the fields of chemical engineering, sonochemistry and green chemistry research, engineering and innovative technology, sustainable development, environmental pollution abatement, cleaner production technologies and catalysis.
