Description

Environmental biotechnology - a huge and fast growing field with increasing relevance for a sustainable development - is covered in depth in the Biotechnology series. When starting the Second Edition of Biotechnology, one volume was planned to deal with processes of environmental biotechnology. However, it was realized soon that knowledge in this field has increased tremendously. It has become too broad a field to be summarized with significance in a single book. Now, a set of three volumes on the topic is available. Volumes 11 a-c provide profound information on the biotechnology of wastewater, on soil decontamination processes, on the treatment of solid waste and off-gas, and on the preparation of drinking water. Special emphasis is given to the description of processes and applications.
