Description

Membrane-Based Hybrid Processes for Wastewater Treatment analyzes and discusses the potential of membrane-based hybrid processes for the treatment of complex industrial wastewater, the recovery of valuable compounds, and water reutilization. In addition, recent and future trends in membrane technology are highlighted. Industrial wastewater contains a large variety of compounds, such as heavy metals, salts and nutrients, which makes its treatment challenging. Thus, the use of conventional water treatment methods is not always effective. Membrane-based hybrid processes have emerged as a promising technology to treat complex industrial wastewater.

Key Features

  • Discusses the properties, mechanisms, advantages, limitations and promising solutions of different types of membrane technologies
  • Addresses the optimization of process parameters
  • Describes the performance of different membranes
  • Presents the potential of Nanotechnology to improve the treatment efficiency of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs)
  • Covers the application of membrane and membrane-based hybrid treatment technologies for wastewater treatment
  • Includes forward osmosis, electrodialysis, and diffusion dialysis
  • Considers hybrid membrane systems expanded to cover zero liquid discharge, salt recovery, and removal of trace contaminants

Readership

Engineers, scientists and managers who require knowledge to the principles of wastewater treatment processes. Students on Environmental Biotechnology/Microbiology. Different professionals working or interested in the Environmental Microbiology or Bioremediation field
