Features

  • Studies metal catalyzed oxidations and reductions, natural and synthetic catalysis, supercritical water and wet air oxidation, and sonochemistry
  • Details electrochemical degradation techniques, as well as current photolytic and photocatalytic methods
  • Links chemical degradation methods to concepts in biodegradation, biotechnology, and toxicology
  • Summary

    Chemical Degradation Methods for Wastes and Pollutants focuses on established and emerging chemical procedures for the management of pollutants in industrial wastewater and the environment. This reference offers an in-depth explanation of the degradation process, mechanisms, and control factors affecting each method, as well as issues crucial to the application of these approaches in real-world treatment sites. It examines ten of the most common and useful chemical technologies for environmental remediation and sanitation of industrial waste streams and offers implementation guidelines and examples of remediation strategies that are crucial to effective wastewater cleansing.
