Environmental Technologies to Treat Sulfur Pollution: Principles
and Engineering provides a definitive and detailed discussion of
state-of-the-art environmental technologies to treat pollution by
sulfurous compounds of wastewater, off-gases, solid waste, soils
and sediments. Special attention is given to novel bioremediation
techniques that have been developed over the last 10 years.
Information density is unique owing to the many figures and graphs
(150), tables (over 80) and over 1500 cited literature references.
A detailed subject index helps the reader to find their way through
the different technological applications, making it the perfect
reference work for professionals and consultants dealing with
sulfur-related environmental (bio)-technologies. Contents Part I -
The sulfur cycle Part II - Technologies to Desulfurise Resources
Part III - Treatment of Waters Polluted by Sulfurous Compounds Part
IV - Treatment of Gases Polluted by Sulfurous Compounds Part V -
Treatment of Soils and Sediments Polluted by Sulfurous Compounds
Part VI - Other Applications of Sulfur Cycle: Bioconversions in
Environmental Engineering Part VII - Problems Related to Sulfur
Cycle: Bioconversions
Energy and feedstock materials for the chemical industry show an
increasing demand. With constraints related to availability and use
of oil, the energy and chemical industry is subject to considerable
changes. The need for the use of cheaper and widely available
feedstocks, and the development of sustainable and environmentally
friendly chemical processes is growing rapidly under both
economical and public pressure. Therefore, waste gas treatment has
gradually been integrated into the process design. Instead of
discharging their waste gases into the atmosphere, industries
increasingly attempt to become self-sufficient and recover
compounds from their own wastestreams or use (upgraded)
wastestreams of neighbouring industries as raw material. The
proceedings of the 3rd International Symposium on Biotechniques for
Air Pollution Control, held on 28-30 September 2009 in Delft, the
Netherlands, give an overview of innovative biotechnology based
processes for treatment of waste gasses. Various innovative
research aspects of environmental chemistry, environmental
engineering, and bioprocess technology are discussed.
