Innovative Remediation Technologies for Micro- and Nanoplastics in Water and Wastewater

Innovative Remediation Technologies for Micro- and Nanoplastics in Water and Wastewater

addresses the critical global issue of water contamination by microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs), which are pervasive in manufactured products, and as byproducts of larger plastic debris breakdown.

This comprehensive volume delves into the toxicological impacts of MP/NP pollution and explores innovative, sustainable remediation technologies for their removal from water and wastewater.

Key features include an in-depth analysis of the toxicological effects of MP/NPs, detailed exploration of sustainable remediation methods, and practical insights into the implementation of these technologies.

Given the urgent need for effective solutions, this book provides a single-source reference for academicians, researchers, PhD students, managers, and environmental scientists, offering the latest information on remediation techniques and degradation mechanisms.

By presenting global applications and comparing various remediation technologies, this book fills a significant gap in environmental remediation research.
