Opis

The book focuses on Application of Nanotechnology in Membranes for Water Treatment but not only provides a series of innovative solutions for water reclamation via advanced membrane technology but also serves as a medium to promote international networking for the development of advanced membrane technology for Universal well-being. It can promote the networking among different research institutions in order to achieve the common goal of finding the solutions to address the grand challenge in supplying freshwater and better sanitation system that is economically, environmentally and societally sustainable. There are various books published in the similar topic that emphasized on the application of membrane based technology for water and wastewater treatment. However, this book is unique for the reason that the chapters were contributed by established researchers all around the globe based on their recent research findings. In addition, this book provides a holistic coverage of membrane based on development for water treatment, from the membrane preparation and characterizations to the performance for a specific process and application. Since that water scarcity has become a global risk and one of the most serious concerns for the scientific community in this century, the publication of this book is therefore significant as one of the medium for a good reference of an alternative solution in water reclamation.
