Sustainable Technologies for Textile Wastewater Treatments

Sustainable Technologies for Textile Wastewater Treatments takes on a complex and environmentally crucial issue, by providing a comprehensive coverage of helpful new technologies and practices from industry. Textile wastewater is well known to have a detrimental environmental impact if discharged without being treated correctly. Toxic contaminants such as metals can be generated in large volumes, adding to the difficulty and importance of the wastewater treatment itself, and feeding constant demand for improvements in practice. Many new treatments, including innovative uses of nanotechnology and waste biomass have lead to improvements in treatment processes. These new technologies are covered here with technical details and instructions, based on successful industrial practice. Case studies are also provided on different textile wastewater treatment plants, showing the full practical context of these technologies.
