This book reports on the treatment of waters and wastewaters with contaminants of emerging concern such as pharmaceutically active compounds. It shows how to prevent the contamination of the environment with such pollutants in the content of effluents. This book reviews various physico-chemical and biological methods that have been developed in order to deal with the polluted effluents. It also evaluates the already developed technologies regarding the sustainability criteria. The chapters discuss technical aspects and put the spotlight on the sustainability aspects of the water and wastewater treatment technologies. 

This book consists of selected papers from the 2022 4th International Conference on Environment Sciences and Renewable Energy, which was held as a fully virtual conference during May 27–29, 2022. The book overviews the latest progress in environmental and energy technologies with a specific focus on wind turbines and hydrogen production. In the field of environmental science, wastewater treatment, air pollution abatement, solid waste treatment, and general policy recommendations are discussed. Technology advances, especially in wastewater nutrients and micropollutant removal, are covered. In policy measures, cost allocations, optimum recycling strategies, and environmental footprint allocations of different environmental technologies are included. In the field of renewable energy, several hot topics, including solar cells, offshore floating wind turbines, and renewable energy resource potentials in different regions are considered.

This book presents the selected papers from the 2023 5th International Conference on Environmental Sciences and Renewable Energy (ESRE 2023), which was held as a hybrid conference during June 19–21, 2023, in Vienna, Austria. The book includes first-rate, original research on various aspects of environmental sciences and renewable energy, offering perspectives from industrial and research communities to address current challenges in related fields. In the field of environmental science, wastewater and sludge treatment, air pollution and control, global environmental change, and ecosystems management are discussed. In the area of renewable energy, several hot topics are presented including solar energy, energy conservation and recovery, and hydrogen generation and application. This book supports the transfer of vital knowledge to next-generation researchers, students, and practitioners in academia and industry.
