Disposal and Recycling Strategies for Nano-engineered Materials enables the reader to understand and implement the latest methods for the safe disposal and re-use of nanomaterials found in the environment at end-of-life. Sections introduce nanomaterials, their general classification, properties, and preparation techniques before providing an overview and analysis of common disposal strategies. This is followed by in-depth chapters that focus on important steps and innovative strategies in dealing with waste nanomaterials, including sampling, classification and identification of waste materials, green technologies and biodegradation strategies, physico-chemical disposal, integrated technologies to prevent or control nanomaterial wastes entering the environment, and more.

This is a valuable resource for researchers, advanced students, engineers, and scientists, with an interest in nanomaterials, their life cycle, waste, and recycling, water treatment, chemical engineering, environmental science, materials science, chemistry, and sustainability.

3D Printing Technology for Water Treatment Applications provides a state-of-the-art presentation on the application of 3D printing technology in water treatment. The book discusses numerous processes and their scope for improvement through the use of 3D-printing technology, including pollutant separation from water and an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of different 3D printed technology over current technologies. In addition, the future outlook for device development using 3D printing water purification is explored. Finally, sustainability issues relating to 3D printing-based water purification processes are discussed, describing specific technologies such as 3D printed membranes.

This book will serve as a vital resource for scientists, engineers and environmental professionals working in water treatment technologies.

Most of the time, industrial wastes contain recoverable resources that would be useful in other applications. For example, greywater have enough nutrient to support the growth of microalgal biomass that are useful for biofuel production. Similarly, solid waste generated in metal extraction industries often contain high concentration of other metals that could be extracted using various processes. This book presents a critical overview on the current nanotechnologies that are being utilized for extraction of valuable resources from various industrial and domestic wastes. This book presents research, reviews, and case studies on the extraction of metal, organic compounds, energy and nutrients from waste through nanotechnological interventions.
