Water Treatment

Water treatment describes those processes used to make water more acceptable for a desired end-use. These can include use as drinking water, industrial processes, medical and many other uses. The goal of all water treatment process is to remove existing contaminants in the water, or reduce the concentration of such contaminants so the water becomes fit for its desired end-use. ...

Practical techniques and methods to develop an efficient water management strategy

Over the last two decades, attitudes to the environment have changed. We no longer accept that pollution is inevitable. Instead, the public is aware that improvements are possible and believes that the expense should be met. The response of governments has been to introduce new legislation and to establish regulatory authorities with increased powers to enforce compliance. Today, reducing waste ...

Overcoming the Global Water Crisis: A Focus on Wastewater Recycling & Reuse

While it is true that more than half of our planet’s surface is covered in water, a vast majority of it is saline. Fresh water, the water we use in hundreds of ways every day, constitutes only 2.5 % of all the water on the Earth. Today, the world faces what is known as the water crisis. Parts of the world do not have access to this most vital resource on the planet. Therefore, a focus on ...

The ecological impact of membrane-based extraction of phenolic compounds – a life cycle assessment study

Many phenolic compounds show high boiling points, low molecular weights, moderate polarities or high toxicities. Therefore, conventional wastewater treatment is limited or expensive. Recycling of the separated compounds is often not possible. But, if liquid-liquid reactive extraction is linked to a non-porous membrane, some or all of the above mentioned limitations may be overcome. The key ...
