Advanced Oxidation Processes for Wastewater Treatment
1st Edition
Emerging Green Chemical Technology
Description
Advanced Oxidation Processes for Waste Water Treatment: Emerging Green Chemical Technology is a complete resource covering the fundamentals and applications of all Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs). This book presents the most up-to-date research on AOPs and makes the argument that AOPs offer an eco-friendly method of wastewater treatment. In addition to an overview of the fundamentals and applications, it details the reactive species involved, along with sections on reactor designs, thus helping readers understand and implement these methods.
Key Features
- Presents in-depth coverage of all types of Advanced Oxidation Processes, including Super Critical Water Oxidation, Photo-Fenton and Like Processes
- Includes a fundamental review, applications, reactive species and reactor designs
- Reviews applications across waste types, including industrial waste, domestic and municipal sewage, and hospital wastes
