Description

Bioremediation Technology: Hazardous Waste Management describes hazardous waste industries, sources of waste generation, characterization and treatment processes/methods, and technique and technology to deal with the treated waste as per the prescribed standard. Advanced treatment based on the microbial remediation, plant-based decontamination, rhizoremediation and nano-based remediation is also explained. Advances in treatment technology using biotechnological tools/bionanotechnology for removal of contaminants are described. This volume will help readers to develop bio-nano-based technologies, which can be transferred from lab to land, and pilot to commercial scenarios. Covers bioremediation aspects of hazardous waste generation from industries, their characterization and treatment Includes case studies at field scale of bioremediation processes Describes electronic waste and their identification, characterization, treatment and recovery of heavy metals through bioleaching/ biosorption Covers toxic waste and statistics, and bioreactor design and applications Discusses relevant technology transfer from lab to land
