Emerging Technologies in Biological and Hybrid Wastewater Treatment: Lessons from Developed to Enhancing Practices in Developing Countries
About this ebook
It investigates how the biological and hybrid wastewater treatment technology may be used in a wide variety of field's sets apart from other on-the-shelf publications on the market. Also, it delves into the core concepts of biological and hybrid wastewater treatment systems. It explores how these concepts can be modified to fit a variety of contexts and uses. Applications such as managing facilities, dealing with pandemics, urban wastewater treatment and reuse, farming, and other applications are included in this book. This book is helpful to researchers, entrepreneurs, professionals, planners, policymakers, environmental engineers, and others interested in biological and hybrid wastewater treatment system management strategies through the application of breakthroughs in biological and hybrid wastewater treatment technologies. Also, it is useful as a fundamental source of information and state-of-the-art knowledge to graduate students, university faculties, and researchers in the fields of environmental sciences/engineering, biological and chemical sciences, and NGO. It is also useful to entrepreneurs, professionals, and planners in policy and decision making at the local, state, and national levels for many countries.
