1st Edition
Circular Economy Applications for Water Remediation
The reuse and recycling of wastewater can greatly reduce the overall demand for fresh water for various industrial applications. Circular economic concepts could potentially alter the overall demand for water resources if implemented successfully. Circular Economy: Applications for Water Remediation will examine the current understanding of water remediation processes, the drawbacks, future potential, as well as the relatively unexplored areas that require further research.
- Provides an overview on the available processes to extract value-added materials from wastewater such as clean water, nutrients, and energy.
- Explores the possibilities of reusing the wastewater for agricultural uses.
- Provide an overview on the current policies and regulations on the implementation of circular economy concepts in wastewater remediation.
