"This edited book, Novel Water Treatment and Separation Methods: Simulation of Chemical Processes, by Dr. Bhanvase, Dr. Ugwekar, and Dr. Mankar, brings out important information on various aspects of water treatment technologies. With the increase in global population, water has now been a primary focus for geopolitics in water-starved nations. It is important, therefore, to preserve, recycle, and reuse water. The book provides insights into the importance of water and various methods of water treatment. . . . In the initial sections of the book, details on various techniques for water treatment have been provided. Subsequently, the book deals with novel separation processes and modeling and simulation of various chemical processes involved in water treatment technologies. I strongly feel that the book provides a complete package for researchers and practicing engineers working in the field of water treatment technologies."
