9780323956567: Development in Wastewater Treatment Research and Processes

Synopsis

Advanced Oxidation Processes for Tannery Effluent provides a detailed overview of currently applied and tested sewage treatment technologies and the integration of advanced processes to remove trace organic contaminants and micro-organisms. The book discusses the potential of improved biological treatment to produce reusable wastewater, new municipal wastewater disinfection processes, the reduction of bacteria resistant to antibiotics, as well as the effects of advanced oxidation processes on microbial and chemical contaminants. It features membrane bioreactors, moving bed bioreactors, light and solar technology, ozonation and immobilized heterogeneous photocatalysis, and more. In addition, the book discusses issues and standards for water reuse, the state of application of membrane bioreactors, and the treatment of reverse osmosis concentrate for better water use in wastewater treatment. Final sections present the latest developments in the field of drinking water reuse and address various important issues in this context, such as proper public health protection, reliability and monitoring.

À propos des auteurs

Dr. Maulin P. Shah is Chief Scientist and Head of the Industrial Waste Water Research Lab, Division of Applied and Environmental Microbiology Lab at Enviro Technology Ltd., Ankleshwar, Gujarat, India. His work focuses on the impact of industrial pollution on the microbial diversity of wastewater following cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent analysis. His major work involves isolation, screening, identification, and genetically engineering high-impact microbes for the degradation of hazardous materials. His research interests include biological wastewater treatment, environmental microbiology, biodegradation, bioremediation, and phytoremediation of environmental pollutants from industrial wastewaters.



Susana Rodríguez-Couto (female) got her B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Chemistry (Industrial Chemistry) from the University of Santiago de Compostela in 1992 and her Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1999 from the University of Vigo, obtaining the maximal grade (magna cum laude) and, in addition, she was awarded with the Extraordinary Prize for Doctoral Thesis in Chemistry. She worked as an Associate Professor and an Isidro Parga Pondal Senior Researcher at the University of Vigo (2000-2004), as a Ramón y Cajal Senior Researcher at Rovira i Virgili University (2004-2008) and as an Ikerbasque Research Professor (2009-2019). She has also worked as an Invited Researcher at the Institute from Environmental Biotechnology, Graz University of Technology (Austria) and at the Department of Biological Engineering, University of Minho (Portugal). In 2008, she received the I3 Professor from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Education to the recognition of an outstanding research activity. In March 2021 she is joining LUT School of Engineering Science at Mikkeli, Finland, as a Full Professor in biological water treatment. She has published more than 140 articles in highly reputed international journals (h index 42). She is editor of several journals (3Biotech, Frontiers) and 14 Elsevier books.
