Occurrence and Behavior of Emerging Contaminants in Organic Wastes and Their Control Strategies

Occurrence and Behavior of Emerging Contaminants in Organic Wastes and Their Control Strategies provides updated information on the occurrence, monitoring, and behavior of emerging contaminants discharged into the environment from different anthropogenic activities as well as organic wastes management practices, which can be beneficial in classifying and broadly addressing the assessment, treatment, disposal, and management of organic wastes.

This book will cover the occurrences of nanoparticles, microplastics, antibiotic resistance genes, disinfection by-products, medical waste, pharmaceutical and personal care products, and other emerging contaminants discharged in different types of organic wastes. Researchers, scientists, graduate, and postgraduate students will find this book to be a timely contribution that will be useful in identifying and comprehensively addressing occurrence and behavior of emerging contaminants in organic wastes.



- Covers a broad range of information on different emerging contaminants presented in different types of organic wastes

- Deals with insights, behaviors, monitoring, and pathways of emerging contaminants in the classification, transport, treatment, and disposal of organic wastes

- Illustrates the environmental risks of emerging contaminants in final waste products of organic wastes

- Highlights feasible control strategies for emerging contaminants during the whole process of organic waste management
