ABSTRACT

Removal of Pollutants from Saline Water: Treatment Technologies provides a comprehensive understanding of technologies that are currently adopted in the treatment of pollutants present in saline water systems. It provides information on the treatment technologies for saline water systems, including seawater, brackish water, oil-produced water, and other industrial saline wastewaters.

FEATURES

  • Presents information exclusively for saline water pollutant removal
  • Introduces current treatment technologies and addresses why and how the techniques differ between fresh and salt water
  • Offers an inclusive overview of physicochemical, biological, membrane, and advanced oxidation treatment technologies
  • Features various perspectives and case studies from relevant global experts
  • Provides a comprehensive one-stop source for the treatment of pollutants in all saline water systems

Aimed at students, academicians, researchers, and practicing engineers in the fields of chemical, civil, marine, and environmental engineering who wish to be acquainted with the most recent developments in the treatment of pollutants present in saline water systems.
