Current Developments In Bioengineering And Biotechnology: Advances In Eco-Friendly And Sustainable Technologies For The Treatment Of Textile Wastewater

Advances in Eco-friendly and Sustainable Technologies for the Treatment of Textile Wastewater delivers a comprehensive overview of the advancements in a variety of treatment approaches with a major emphasis on bioremediation for the removal and degradation of textile dyes. This book summarizes the latest advancements in textile dyes/effluent treatment technologies. It will evaluate the major physico-chemical and biological processes that are most popular among textile industrial wastewater treatment plants. The recent advanced treatment options including photocatalysis with the aid of nanotechnology, advanced oxidation processes is discussed. It has been evident that, although physico-chemical processes are rapid and highly effective in degrading xenobiotic dyes, however, biological processes tend to achieve the non-toxic metabolites after the degradation of xenobiotics making it's the most preferable choice of effluent treatment. This book emphasizes bioremediation methods and include the available knowledge on microbial catalysts from basics of dye metabolism to its process application such as bioreactors for the effective degradation of dyes. The state-of-the-art methodological progress in molecular biology and genetic engineering is also covered. Introduces the global scenario of textile pollution; country-wise industrial contribution, severity, and ecological consequences Covers both the conventional treatment technologies for the removal of synthetic dyes such as adsorption and coagulation along with several novel approaches of advanced treatment options, including photocatalysis, advanced oxidation processes Provide an in-depth analysis of bioremedial approaches including the application of bacterial, fungal/yeast, microalgae and plants, and enzymatic biotransformation for the degradative metabolism of dyes Includes genetic engineering, metagenomics, microbial fuel cells, and biofilm-based immobilization techniques and bioreactors
