Smart Wastewater Systems and Climate Change
The changes in temperature and rainfall that will come with climate change combined with populations that are growing but also becoming more condensed will put a great deal of stress on our wastewater systems. Smart systems use sensors, data analytics, and automation to enable real-time monitoring, data-driven decision-making, and enhanced control. Smart Wastewater Systems and Climate Change presents the ways smart technology can be used to improve wastewater management and increase the climate resilience of wastewater systems. This is a great resource for anyone interested in water or wastewater management, climate resilience, or smart systems applications. Topics covered include: Use of spatial intelligence and geospatial analysis Approaches to risk assessment and disaster resilience Incorporation of machine learning and AI into decision making
Waste Recycling Technologies for Nanomaterials Manufacturing
This book discusses the recent advances in the wastes recycling technologies to provide low-cost and alternative ways for nanomaterials production. It shows how carbon nanomaterials can be synthesized from different waste sources such as banana fibers, argan (Argania spinosa) seed shells, corn grains, camellia oleifera shell, sugar cane bagasse, oil palm (empty fruit bunches and leaves) and palm kernel shells. Several nanostructured metal oxides (MnO2, Co3O4,....) can be synthesized via recycling of spent batteries. The recovered nanomaterials can be applied in many applications including: Energy (supercapacitors, solar cells, etc.) water treatments (heavy metal ions and dyes removal) and other applications. Spent battery and agriculture waste are rich precursors for metals and carbon, respectively. The book also explores the various recycling techniques, agriculture waste recycling, batteries recycling, and different applications of the recycled materials.
Emerging Contaminants in the Aquatic Environment
This book carefully reviews the sources, causes, and effects of the emerging contaminants and clarifies how they enter water systems, including urban wastewater, agricultural runoff, and industrial discharges. This book also highlights the intricate relationships between pollutants and ecosystems, showing their hazardous and bioaccumulative characteristics through in-depth studies and case studies. In addition, the book addresses the pressing need for efficient management techniques and covers cutting-edge methods for monitoring, assessment, and correction. This book provides insights into reducing the negative consequences of emerging pollutants through sophisticated analytical techniques and environmentally acceptable remedial procedures. Furthermore, this book stresses the significance of legislative interventions and interdisciplinary teamwork in tackling this environmental concern. This book is a valuable resource for scholars, decision-makers, and individuals who are committed to environmentally friendly water management.
