Currently, it is a serious concern to manage waste in the environment. Therefore, detailed knowledge of heavy metals, their eco-toxicological and health effects and ecofriendly approaches for their immobilization and detoxification is urgently required to control and minimize the environmental pollution. Composting is one of the popular methods in waste management and there are a lot of issues pertaining to composting. One of it is the leaching of heavy metals. This book discusses thoroughly, the availability, leachability and the speciation of heavy metals in the entire process of composting.
Bioremediation of Endocrine Disrupting Pollutants in Industrial Wastewater describes the occurrence and sources of endocrine disruptive pollutants (EDPs) in various industrial wastewaters. It discusses the type of EDPs, their effects and detection and treatment methods and presents the fate and effect of EDPs, their quantitative and qualitative analysis in industrial wastewaters and treatment through conventional and advanced technologies. It also presents the most advanced and innovative approaches for the management of EDPs in industrial wastewaters.The book will be a vital source of information for the students and researchers who have interest in emerging pollutants, specifically endocrine disruptive pollutants for their treatment and management.
Due to high operating, transport costs and the poorly developed market for compost, the expected profits could not be realized as planned. Since 1990s, there is a trend towards smaller, manually operated composting plants at community level, initiated primarily by citizen initiatives or non-governmental organizations. Hence it recommended that instead of setting up single large compost plants, it would be beneficial and more effective to set up several small composting plants. Decentralized composting can be operated by an appropriate technology and implemented at reduced investment and operating costs. An efficient and promising technique in decentralized composting is the rotary drum composter. It is an excellent concept for smaller communities or in the case of projects that require a rapid and an enclosed pathogen killing process. This book, therefore, provides information on operational aspects and compost dynamics for the mixed municipal organic wastes in a rotary drum composter. The investigations should be useful for professionals in waste management fields, urban local bodies and institutional bodies.
