Nature-Based Wastewater Treatment Systems

Emerging Approaches with Potential Resource Recovery Options

About this book

Giving an account of successfully applied and recently developed green remediation technologies for water pollution control, this book describes the scope and applications of nature-based wastewater treatment technologies for environmental sustainability. The major focus is on associated eco-environmental concerns, recent technological developments, field studies, lessons learned, sustainability concerns, and future challenges. It also deals with the development of valuable bioresources together with wastewater treatment for the circular economy.

This book:

  • Covers nature-based wastewater treatment systems for the efficient management of wastewater for the protection of precious water resources.
  • Includes development and utilization of useful bioresources, bioenergy, and value-added products together with wastewater treatment for the circular economy.
  • Discusses technological aspects such as design, operation, and maintenance, eco-friendliness, effectiveness, and sustainability concerns.
  • Highlights technological advancements, field experiences, research gaps, recent developments, challenges, and future directions for further improvements.
  • Reviews field studies and challenges between pollution sources, exposure pathways, and impacts on environmental quality and human health.

This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in environmental engineering and sciences, environmental microbiology, and biotechnology.
