Beskrivning

This book covers pharmaceutical residue dispersion in the aquatic environment and its toxic effect on living organisms. It discusses conventional and advanced remediation technologies such as the use of biomaterials for the sequestration of contaminants, nanotechnology, and phytoremediation. The book includes topics such as the removal of pharmaceutical and personal care product residues from water bodies, green chemistry, and legal regimens for pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment. It also covers the application of modified biochar in pharmaceutical removal.FEATURESExplores the management of the environment through green chemistryDescribes phytoremediation technology for decontamination of pharmaceutical-laden water and wastewaterCovers the detection methods and quantification of pharmaceutical residues in various contaminated sourcesDiscusses ecotoxicological aspects and risk assessment of pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environmentReviews degradation and treatment technologies including nanotechnology, biomaterials, and biocharThis book is meant for pharmaceutical, toxicology, and environmental science industry experts and researchers.
