Concept of Zero Liquid Discharge

Concept of Zero Liquid Discharge: Innovations and Advances for Sustainable Wastewater Management provides fundamental and in depth knowledge on the need for ZLD, conventional and modern technologies and various strategies available to achieve ZLD. The book covers the various waste water treatment technologies that lead to ZLD, integrated waste water treatment approaches, challenges faced by industries in meeting the ZLD goals and solutions leading to cleaner technologies for ZLD. The book presents the state of the art technologies and the multidisciplinary research underway in the field to address the existing challenges and to provide future directions. There is a misconception among the industrialists that ZLD system is uneconomical and would result in facing a lot of challenges, if adopted. Concept of Zero Liquid Discharge provides a know-how on how ZLD systems may be made economical and how the technological challenges can be addressed with the modern technological alternatives. This will be an important reference for postgraduate students in environmental science and engineering as well as high-level researchers, professors, experts, and engineers who conduct research and practices in the area of zero liquid discharge (ZLD) approaches, sustainable wastewater management and related fields. Presents the latest knowledge on the need, goals, benefits and consequences of adoption of ZLD for industries, the environment and the public Provides information on modern tools to address the ZLD challenges, modern and novel technologies available for ZLD system and recent research in the field Includes global case studies and real-life examples of how this method has been implemented effectively
