We are proposing this comprehensive volume aimed at bridging and
bonding of the theory and practical experiences for the elimination
of a broad range of pollutants from various types of water and soil
utilizing innovative nanotechnologies, biotechnologies and their
possible combinations. Nowadays, a broad range of contaminants are
emerging from the industry (and also representing old ecological
burdens). Accidents and improper wastewater treatment requires a
fast, efficient and cost-effective approach. Therefore, several
innovative technologies of water and soil treatments have been
invented and suggested in a number of published papers. Out of
these, some nanotechnologies and biotechnologies (and possibly also
their mutual combinations) turned out to be promising for practical
utilization - i.e., based on both extensive laboratory testing and
pilot-scale verification. With respect to the diverse character of
targeted pollutants, the key technologies covered in this book will
include oxidation, reduction, sorption and/or biological
degradation. In relation to innovative technologies and new
emerging pollutants mentioned in this proposed book, an important
part will also cover the ecotoxicity of selected pollutants and
novel nanomaterials used for remediation. Thus, this work will
consist of 8 sections/chapters with a technical appendix as an
important part of the book, where some technical details and
standardized protocols will be clearly presented for their possible
implementation at different contaminated sites. Although many
previously published papers and books (or book chapters) are
devoted to some aspects of nano-/biotechnologies, here we will
bring a first complete and comprehensive treatise on the latest
progress in innovative technologies with a clear demonstration of
the applicability of particular methods based on results of the
authors from pilot tests (i.e., based on the data collected within
several applied projects, mainly national project "Environmentally
friendly nanotechnologies and biotechnologies in water and soil
treatment" of the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic, and 7FP
project NANOREM: "Taking Nanotechnological Remediation Processes
from Lab Scale to End User Applications for the Restoration of a
Clean Environment"). This multidisciplinary book will be suitable
for a broad audience including environmental scientists,
practitioners, policymakers and toxicologists (and of course
graduate students of diverse fields - material science, chemistry,
biology, geology, hydrogeology, engineering etc.).
