Book The Science of Water Reuse

Download or read book The Science of Water Reuse written by Frank R. Spellman and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general public’s aversion to drinking treated wastewater is evident, rooted in the reluctance to accept a direct pipe-to-pipe connection, for example, from a toilet to a drinking water tap. Despite advancements in treating black water from sewage sources to meet drinking water standards, there persists a general hesitancy to fully accept this possibility or understand the science behind it. The Science of Water Reuse explains how technology can sufficiently purify reclaimed water to potable water quality—even surpassing the cleanliness of the water available from conventional taps. It addresses the significant gap in the existing literature on water reuse, focusing particularly on the varied applications of reused or reclaimed water within municipal and agricultural contexts, with a specific emphasis on issues and technologies related to both direct and indirect potable water reuse. It serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, municipal planners, environmental engineering professionals, as well as undergraduate and graduate students. Bridges the gap between technical details and public comprehension, making the complex subject of water reuse accessible and relevant. Provides a comprehensive understanding of water reuse, including case studies for practical application. Contributes to changing public attitudes, making reclaimed water an acceptable source for potable use.

Book Emerging Nanotechnologies for Water Treatment

Download or read book Emerging Nanotechnologies for Water Treatment written by Yanbiao Liu and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid population growth, urbanisation and industrialisation have caused serious problems in terms of water pollution and the supply of safe water. Solutions for monitoring pollutants in water and for removing them are urgently needed and they must be both efficient and sustainable. Recent advances in emerging environmental nanotechnologies provide promising solutions for these issues. The physical and chemical properties of nanomaterials can be tailored by controlling attributes such as their size, shape, composition, and surface, so that they can be both highly specific and highly efficient. This makes them perfect platforms for a variety of environmental applications including sensing, treatment and remediation. Providing an array of cutting-edge nanotechnology research in water applications, including sensing, treatment, and remediation, as well as a discussion of progress in the rational design and engineering of nanomaterials for environmental applications, this book is a valuable reference for researchers working in applications for nanotechnology, environmental chemistry and environmental engineering as well as those working in the water treatment industry.
