Advances in Oil-Water Separation: A Complete Guide for Physical, Chemical, and Biochemical Processes discusses a broad variety of chemical, physical and biochemical processes, including skimming, membrane separation, adsorption, onsite chemical reactions, burning and usage of suitable microbial strains for onsite degradation of oil. It critically reviews all current developments in oil-water separation processes and technologies, identifies gaps and illuminates the scope for future research and development in the field.� This book provides researchers, engineers and environmental professionals working in oil recovery and�storage with solutions for disposal of waste oil and separation of oil from water in a sustainable, environmentally-friendly way.

As the book provides a complete state-of-art overview on oil-water separation technologies, it will also ease literature searches on oil-water separation technologies.

Provides a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art developments in oil-water separation methods Discusses the pros and cons of established processes Guides the reader towards the selection of the right technique/process for each oil-water separation problem Presents current developments on adsorbent based oil-water separation

Metal Value Recovery from Industrial Waste Using Advanced Physicochemical Treatment Technologies focuses on the fundamental and advanced topics involved with the technologies for the extraction of metal ions from different industrial discarded volumes which may be sludge or wastewater. Uniqueness of the book lies in the fact that it covers each topic related to industrial wastes and elaborates on discussions on metal ion recovery to make the readers confident about the topics and concepts explained in the section.Moreover, this book examines high potential in different downstream processes like membrane filtration, hybrid techniques, chemical leaching, electrochemical techniques, and a variety of advanced recovery techniques. Emphasis is given to state-of-the-art concept, latest research, practical applications or commercialization through case studies, and comparative evaluation of the processes for metal ion recovery from industrial wastes.

Provides updated occurrence and characteristics of a variety of high valued metal ions different industrial wastesPresents a detailed account of advanced chemical leaching technologies for the recovery of those metal ionsCovers innovative approaches for the reutilization and management of industrial wastes in a very easily understandable way with visual elements so that the knowledge can reach out to all interested learnersDescribes specific metal recovery will contain the case-studies (wherever applicable) to describe the lab to pilot scale to the industrial scale implementation

This book provides recent developments and advancements in management of plastic wastes and associated challenges with it. It primarily addresses the issues of plastics that might drastically affect the lifeform in the long run and its prevention by introducing appropriate alternatives and/or finding strategies to mitigate the existing microplastic crisis using suitable approaches. It focusses on efforts on neutralizing and restricting further spread of microplastic pollution, its bioaccumulation and associated human health impacts.Features:Covers technological mitigation of plastics and microplastic wastes along with their remediation in a technical manner.Discusses advances in plastic and micro-/nano-plastic pollution and possible pathways of pollution.Demonstrates the mitigation measures to minimize such pollution loads, with a special focus on the application of nanotechnology.Reviews recycle and value-added products from the waste plastic.Focusses on development of alternate clean energy sources.This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in environmental and chemical engineering and remediation.

The reclamation of wastewater (and other essential materials) is among the major research areas for understanding the effects of implementing a circular economic model. The re-use and re-cycling of wastewater can greatly reduce the overall demand for freshwater for various industrial applications. Such concepts could potentially greatly reduce the overall water demands of our planet if implemented successfully. Circular Economy: Applications for Water Remediation will examine the current understanding of the circular economy in water remediation processes, its drawbacks, and relatively unexplored areas that require further research. This book:Provides an overview of the processes available to extract value-added materials from wastewater, such as clean water, nutrients, and energyExplores the possibilities of re-using wastewater for agricultural usesProvides an overview of the current policies and regulations concerning the implementation of circular economy concepts in wastewater remediation
