Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
As the world advances rapidly in technology, industries are experiencing
rampant growth, and the healthcare sector is reaching new heights; however, novel
challenges are emerging that threaten humanity in entirely new ways. Industrial
development, large-scale urbanization, and hazardous effluent from healthcare facilities
increase concentrations of emerging pollutants in our surface waters. Emerging
pollutants have puzzled the researchers as they are relatively in smaller quantities than
other pollutants, yet they pass through the conventional water treatment processes
unscathed. Innovative integrated methods must be employed to enhance the water
quality by significantly removing these persistent emerging pollutants. This chapter
dives deeper into modern research to remove emerging water pollutants effectively.
Integrated methods such as integrated electrocoagulation, activated sludge with
membrane technology, and construction of wetlands are thoroughly presented.
