Micropollutant Management in Wastewater Treatment
Yahya El Hammoudani
Micropollutants in wastewater have emerged as a critical environmental and public health concern. These substances, often measured in parts per billion or even trillion, include pharmaceuticals, personal care products, pesticides, and industrial chemicals. Despite their small quantities, micropollutants can significantly impact aquatic ecosystems and human health. Conventional wastewater treatment processes are often ineffective at removing these contaminants, leading to their accumulation in the environment. As societies continue to evolve, the need for effective micropollutant management strategies becomes increasingly urgent. Micropollutant Management in Wastewater Treatment offers a comprehensive solution to the challenges posed by micropollutants in wastewater. This book provides readers with a thorough understanding of micropollutants and their impacts, laying a solid scientific foundation for effective management strategies. The book equips researchers, practitioners, and policymakers with the knowledge and tools needed to address this complex issue by exploring advanced treatment technologies, regulatory frameworks, and emerging strategies.

Opportunities and Challenges in Climate-Friendly Clean Water and Energy Technologies
J. Sadhik Basha
Demand for energy and water is increasing as a result of rapid economic, population, and industrial growth. By 2050, it is expected that global energy consumption will nearly double in tandem with world water demand. Because of competing demands for finite resources, existing water and energy systems are limited in their ability to satisfy these expanding needs. Furthermore, rapid population and industrial development inevitably result in the generation of a significant amount of wastewater laden with toxins, persistent inorganic and organic pollutants, and other toxic emissions emitted from different sources. Opportunities and Challenges in Climate-Friendly Clean Water and Energy Technologies presents the most recent technological advancements that are relevant to environmentally friendly methods of producing clean water and a sustainable supply of energy. In order to protect against climate change, it also highlights the most recent empirical research findings in the field of cutting-edge industrial and transportation emission reduction measures. Covering key topics such as renewable energy, wastewater treatment, and biomaterials, this reference work is ideal for environmental scientists, industry professionals, researchers, practitioners, academicians, instructors, and students.

Innovations in Environmental Legislation and Justice
Nima Norouzi
Human health has been protected from environmental contamination by national laws throughout history, but there are still many areas of international environmental law that are underdeveloped. Even though numerous international environmental treaties have been established, effective agreements remain difficult to achieve for a variety of reasons. Because environmental problems disregard political boundaries, they can only be adequately addressed by a wide range of governments, some of which may have serious disagreements on important points of policy. The knowledge gap between legal developments designed to achieve environmental objectives and the practical, scientific, and technical applications must be bridged. Environmental and energy law should be explored from a wide range of perspectives and approaches to gain insight into how the law is designed to tackle particular environmental problems. Innovations in Environmental Legislation and Justice: Environmental and Water-Energy-Food Nexus Laws examines the development and application of international environmental laws and regulations dealing with global air, water, and land pollution. By adopting a multi-disciplinary approach to environmental and energy law, the book embraces all readerships and goes a step further to address the often thorny problem of improving communication between scientists and engineers and law and policymakers. Covering topics such as environmental justice, green constitutions, and climate change, this book is ideal for policymakers, government officials, legal professionals, environmentalists, students, academicians, researchers, and more.
