Microplastics and Nanoplastics: Occurrence, Environmental Impacts and Treatment Processes comprehensively illustrates the microplastics and nanoplastics pollution in different waters, wastewaters and terrestrial environment, and the possibilities of their removal/degradation. It provides a through and exhaustive discussion of the ongoing research and future perspectives of micro/nanoplastics, their interaction with other chemicals, the advanced degradation technologies and their impacts on the ecosystem.

Micro- and nano-plastic pollution is an important topic in academia and industry and is gaining considerable attention in the society due to the concerns related to plastics. In addition to presenting the current issues and trends, this book also addresses some concrete solutions to mitigate this emerging environmental threat. This book is written at an advanced level to address the needs of researchers, students as well as people outside the field of environment technology including, industries, government sectors, business establishments and public interest groups.

Reviews extensively the sources, occurrence and distribution of plastics in various environments, worldwide Provides advanced testing techniques and characterization methods for their qualitative and quantitative analysis Focusses on the fate of microplastics and nanoplastics in various treatment plants along with their physical, chemical, and biological degradation in wastewater Discusses multidisciplinary information on environmental impacts and health hazards of micro/nanoplastics Summarizes the priority areas and future aspects to protect the environment through advanced environmental technologies and policymaking legislations

Sustainable Waste-derived Electrochemical Energy Device Materials: A Circular Economy Approach aims to address the growing need for sustainable materials in the energy and semiconductor industries. With the global shift towards renewable energy sources, there's a significant demand for supercapacitors and battery electrode materials that are not only efficient but also environmentally friendly. This book intends to bridge that gap by exploring the use of waste-derived materials to produce sustainable supercapacitors and battery electrodes. The book covers the chemical and physical properties of these sustainable materials, their environmental impact, and the economic networks associated with their use. By emphasizing the circular economy, the book aims to promote resource efficiency and waste reduction, aligning with global UN sustainability goals and carbon neutrality targets. The book will serve as a valuable reference resource for academics, industry professionals, and policymakers working towards sustainable energy solutions. It promotes innovative solutions to environmental challenges and offers economic and technical insights into the use of waste-derived materials.Focus on the circular economy and waste-derived materials for application in sustainable energy devicesComprehensive coverage of sustainable materials and advanced recycling techniquesInclusion of techno-economic analysis, market impacts, and global regulations for global economy implementationCase studies of successful circular economy implementations via practical applicationsInsights into biocompatible electrolyte and packaging materialsEmphasis on the carbon circular economy, the role of AI/ML in process optimization, and future opportunities for sustainable energy storage
