Removal of Emerging Contaminants from Wastewater through Bio-nanotechnology showcases profiles of the nonregulated contaminants termed as emerging contaminants,? which comprise industrial and household persistent toxic chemicals, pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), pesticides, surfactants and surfactant residues, plasticizers and industrial additives, manufactured nanomaterials and nanoparticles, microplastics, etc. that are used extensively in everyday life. The occurrence of emerging contaminants? in wastewater, and their behavior during wastewater treatment and production of drinking water are key issues in the reuse and recycling of water resources. This book focuses on the exploitation of Nano-biotechnology inclusive of the state-of-the-art remediate strategies to degrade/detoxify/stabilize toxic and hazardous contaminants and restore contaminated sites, which is not as comprehensively discussed in the existing titles on similar topics available in the global market. In addition, it discusses the potential environmental and health hazards and ecotoxicity associated with the widespread distribution of emerging contaminants in the water bodies. It also considers the life cycle assessment (LCA) of emerging (micro)-pollutants with suitable case studies from various industrial sources. Provides natural and ecofriendly solutions to deal with the problem of pollution Details underlying mechanisms of nanotechnology-associated microbes for the removal of emerging contaminants Describes numerous successful field studies on the application of bio-nanotechnology for eco-restoration of contaminated sites Presents recent advances and challenges in bio-nanotechnology research and applications for sustainable development Provides authoritative contributions on the diverse aspects of bio-nanotechnology by world's leading experts INDICE: CHAPTER 1 Nanoadsorbents for scavenging emerging contaminants from wastewater CHAPTER 2 Treatment aspect of an emerging pollutant from Pharmaceutical industries using advanced oxidation process: past, current, and future trends CHAPTER 3 Membrane bioreactor (MBR) as an advanced wastewater treatment technology for removal of synthetic microplastics CHAPTER 4 Strategies to cope with the emerging waste water contaminants through adsorption regimes CHAPTER 5 Performances of membrane bioreactor technology for treating domestic wastewater operated at different sludge retention time CHAPTER 6 Advances in nanotechnologies of waste water treatment: strategies and emerging opportunities CHAPTER 7 Water and wastewater treatment through ozone-based technologies CHAPTER 8 Constructed wetland: a promising technology for the treatment of hazardous textile dyes and effluent CHAPTER 9 Biogenic nanomaterials: synthesis, characteristics, and recent trends in combating hazardous pollutants (an arising scientific horizon) CHAPTER 10 Removal of emerging contaminants from pharmaceutical wastewater through application of bionanotechnology CHAPTER 11 Recent advances in pesticides removal using agroindustry based biochar CHAPTER 12 Bioremediation - the natural solution CHAPTER 13 Detection and removal of pathogenic bacteria from wastewater using various nanoparticles CHAPTER 14 Application of TiO2 photocatalysts hybridized with carbonaceous for degradation of pharmaceuticals CHAPTER 15 Moving bed biofilm reactor- (MBBR-) based advanced wastewater treatment technology for the removal of emerging contaminants CHAPTER 16 An application of bionanotechnology in removal of emerging contaminants from pharmaceutical waste CHAPTER 17 Removal of emerging contaminants in water Treatment by an application of nanofiltration and reverse psmosis CHAPTER 18 Membrane bioreactor (MBR) as an advanced wastewater treatment technology CHAPTER 19 Removal of pesticides from water and wastewater by solar-driven photocatalysis CHAPTER 20 Recent applications, reaction mechanism, and future perspective of hybrid ozonation process for water and wastewater treatment CHAPTER 21 Removal of emerging contaminants from pharmaceutical waste through application of bio nanotechnology CHAPTER 22 Antimicrobial activities of different nanoparticles concerning to wastewater treatment CHAPTER 23 Application of nanomaterial in wastewater treatment: recent advances and future perspective CHAPTER 24 Photocatalytic removal of emerging contaminants in water and wastewater treatments: a review CHAPTER 25 Biologically synthesized nanoparticles for dye removal CHAPTER 26 Removal of emerging contaminants in water treatment by nanofiltration and reserve osmosis CHAPTER 27 Hybrid bioreactor in combination with ozone-based technologies for industrial wastewater treatment CHAPTER 28 Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) in aiding water purification from emerging and ionic contaminants CHAPTER 29 Removal of emerging contaminants from wastewater through bionanotechnology
