Innovative Wastewater Treatment & Resource Recovery Technologies: Impacts on Energy, Economy and EnvironmentTitle: Innovative Wastewater Treatment & Resource Recovery Technologies: Impacts on Energy, Economy and Environment | Author(s): Juan M. Lema, Sonia Suarez Martinez | Publisher: IWA | Year: 2017 | Language: English | Pages: 690 | Size: 18 MB | Extension: pdf
This book introduces the 3R
concept applied to wastewater treatment and resource recovery under a
double perspective. Firstly, it deals with innovative technologies
leading to: Reducing energy requirements, space and impacts; Reusing
water and sludge of sufficient quality; and Recovering resources such as
energy, nutrients, metals and chemicals, including biopolymers. Besides
targeting effective C,N&P removal, other issues such as organic
micropollutants, gases and odours emissions are considered. Most of the
technologies analysed have been tested at pilot- or at full-scale. Tools
and methods for their Economic, Environmental, Legal and Social impact
assessment are described.
