This book deals with natural treatment systems and the challenges
the water industry faces in dealing with sustainability and the
realisation of reaching Net Zero by 2030.Surface waters are all
under threat, with freshwater ecosystems now facing unprecedented
levels of contamination, even after a century of ever stricter
legislation and regulation. The increase in population and
especially in urbanization without sufficient planning and
investment to ensure adequate wastewater collection and treatment
coupled with the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated
with wastewater treatment is leading to a crisis in wastewater
treatment in many countries.Natural treatment systems which use
plants and soil micro-organisms are very much nature-based
solutions and wherever applicable might offer sustainable and low
emissions options for a range of wastewater problems protecting
surface waters as well as creating new habitats to support and
enhance wildlife diversity. In terms of circularity, natural
treatment systems have the potential to produce a staggering array
of useful and valuable by-products, including high-value compounds
for the pharmaceutical industry.Related Link(s)
