Advanced Composite Materials for Wastewater Treatment presents the latest technological advancements in this important research field. This book explores recent advances in manufacturing, fabrication, and the introduction of functional groups such as tailored layered double hydroxide (LDH)-based nanocomposites and three-dimensional hierarchical nanostructures. Among several discussed composites, those that show maximum efficiency, including graphene composites, bio-based composites (alginate, natural fiber, rubber, etc.); biochar; metal-organic frameworks; geopolymers; nanocomposites; and LDH, are all discussed.This book is an essential reference resource for researchers, scientists, and industrial professionals as well as postgraduate students providing them with an in-depth understanding of cutting-edge developments in this field. It provides readers with an overview of the evolution of composites in water and wastewater treatment applications. - Covers wastewater treatment processes using composite materials - Introduces different types of composite materials with an emphasis on performance related to wastewater treatment - Showcases valuable techniques in producing composite materials for wastewater treatment
