"This [volume] provides a general overview of phytotechnologies. Authors from private industry, academia, the consulting community and regulatory agencies have all contributed to [it]. Starting with the basic processes and mechanisms occurring in the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum, the typical applications of vegetation for cleaning up and remediating contaminated sites are described. Since the growth of vegetation is paramount to this technology, the factors within the subsurface environment affecting growth are discussed in detail as well. These include the processes and factors in the soil environment that affect the plant and the subsurface microbial community. After these two "introductory" chapters, the most prevalent applications of phytotechnologies are reviewed. These include vegetated systems for treating organic and inorganic contaminants in solid media, hydraulic systems for controlling and treating contaminant groundwater plumes, and vegetative covers for surface water protection and landfill leachate management. Finally, this monograph concludes with a discussion of the regulatory implications of applying this technology towards the clean up and remediation of contaminated sites worldwide."--Pages ix-x

Removal of Emerging Contaminants Through Microbial Processes by Maulin P Shah Pdf
The abundance of organic pollutants found in wastewater affect urban surface waters. Traditional wastewater management technologies focus on the removal of suspended solids, nutrients and bacteria, however, new pollutants such as synthetic or naturally occurring chemicals are often not monitored in the environment despite having the potential to enter the environment and cause adverse ecological and human health effects. Collectively referred to as "emerging contaminants," they are mostly derived from domestic activities and occur in trace concentrations ranging from pico to micrograms per liter. Environmental contaminants are resistant to conventional wastewater treatment processes and most of them remain unaffected, causing contamination of receiving water. This in turn leads to the need for advanced wastewater treatment processes capable of removing environmental contaminants to ensure safe fresh water sources. This book provides an up-to-date overview of the current bioremediation strategies, including their limitations, challenges and their potential application to remove environmental pollutants. It also introduces the latest trends and advances in environmental bioremediation, and presents the state-of-the-art in biological and chemical wastewater treatment processes. As such, it will appeal to researchers and policy-makers, as well as undergraduate and graduate environmental sciences students.

Bioremediation of Industrial Waste for Environmental Safety by Ram Naresh Bharagava,Gaurav Saxena Pdf
Achieving environmental sustainability with rapid industrialization is currently a major global challenge. Industries are the key economic drivers, but are also the main polluters as untreated/partially treated effluents from industry are usually discharged into the aquatic environment or dumped. Industrial effluents often contain highly toxic and hazardous pollutants, which cause ecological damage and present and health hazards to living beings. As such, there is a pressing need to find ecofriendly solutions to deal with industrial waste, and to develop sustainable methods for treating/detoxifying waste before it’s released into the environment. As a low cost and eco-friendly clean technology, bioremediation can offer a sustainable alternative to conventional remediation technologies for the treatment and management of industrial wastes. This book (Volume II) describes the role of biological agents in the degradation and detoxification of organic and inorganic pollutants in industrial wastes, and presents recent bioremediation approaches for waste treatment and management, such as constructed wetlands, electro- bioremediation and nano-bioremediation, as well as microbial fuel cells. It appeals to students, researchers, scientists, industry professionals and experts in the field of microbiology, biotechnology, environmental sciences, eco-toxicology, environmental remediation and waste management and other relevant areas who are interested in biodegradation and bioremediation of industrial wastes for environmental safety.
