Low Cost Wastewater Bioremediation Technology: Innovative Treatment of Sulphate and Metal-rich Wastewater

Enormous quantities of sulphates and metal-rich contaminates are released into the environment each year. While there are other remediation technologies are available, Bioremediation Technology has proven itself as the most eco-friendly, low cost and efficient alternatives available. Low Cost Wastewater Bioremediation Technology: Innovative Treatment of Sulphate and Metal Rich Wastewater provide users with an authoritative guide to the technologies, processes and considerations for treatment of Sulphate and Metal rich wastewaters. In this book, the authors not only explain the technologies but also provide suitable alternatives to commercial treatment in terms of performance and cost effectiveness. Covers the efficiency of treatment in terms of scale, efficiency, and effectiveness of different Bioremediation technologies for wastewater remediationDiscusses the economics of treatment and the development of suitable alternatives in terms of performance and cost effectiveness INDICE: 1.
