Reseña del libro "Nanocomposite Removal of Pesticides from Wastewater (Wastewater Treatment (CABI Concise)) (en Inglés)"
With global pesticide use increasing significantly each year, the contamination of water bodies with pesticides is a growing environmental threat and a danger to aquatic and human life. Effective remediation of these chemicals therefore demands substantial effort and innovative solutions that can be provided by novel nanocomposite technologies. This book examines the role nanocomposites can play in removing pesticide residues from wastewater and offers a multidisciplinary perspective on the synthesis, mechanisms and practical applications of these nanocomposites. Structured to include foundational knowledge and cutting-edge research, the book first examines the nature of pesticide pollutants, their persistence in aquatic environments and the drawbacks of conventional treatment technologies. It then explores the design and engineering of nanocomposites, covering various compositions, structural modifications and functionalization techniques that enhance their interaction with pesticide molecules. The book also includes: In-depth discussion of key mechanisms such as adsorption, photocatalysis and catalytic degradation, with a focus on optimizing efficiency and selectivity. Real-world applications and case studies, illustrating how different types of nanocomposites, ranging from carbon-based hybrids and metal oxides to bio-inspired and polymeric materials, have been successfully employed for pesticide removal. Critical assessment of scalability challenges, environmental risks and regulatory considerations to provide a balanced perspective on their long-term feasibility. As a valuable resource for environmental scientists, engineers and policymakers seeking sustainable wastewater treatment solutions, this book bridges the gap between material science and environmental engineering. In so doing, it lays the groundwork for directing future research and developing the next generation of effective and environmentally responsible wastewater treatment solutions.
