Fate of Biological Contaminants During Recycling of Organic Wastes covers the fate of viruses, HPBs, and ARGs in organic wastes, and their eliminating methods, including composting, vermicomposting and anaerobic digestion. In addition, this work describes the environmental risks associated with the application of excess sludge, livestock and other bio-wastes in soils Fate of Biological Contaminants During Recycling of Organic Wastes will benefit environmental and soil scientists engaged in the latest research regarding risk assessment and remediation techniques in wastewater, and solid wastes, and agricultural wastes.

Kui Huang

Kui Huang is a professor and department chairman of specializing in the subject of environmental ecological engineering at the School of Environmental and Municipal Engineering, Lanzhou Jiaotong University, China. He received his PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Gifu University, Japan in 2014. He served as a researcher for the River Basin Research Center at Gifu University for two years before joining Lanzhou Jiaotong University in 2015. His teaches courses including water engineering construction and environmental ecological engineering. His research interest involves fundamental and applied aspects of biological contaminant reduction, aerobic biodegradation process, water quality safety in river basin, and organic solids recycling, with a focus on biological and sustainable treated system of wastes by earthworms.
