Development in Waste Water Treatment Research and Processes: Innovative Microbe-Based Applications for Removal of Chemicals and Metals in Wastewater Treatment Plants focuses on the exploitation of various biological treatment technologies and their use to treat toxic and hazardous contaminants present in industrial effluent and restore the contaminated sites, a topic which lacks discussion in existing titles on the global market. This book encompasses advanced technologies and updated information as well as future directions for young researchers and scientists who are working in the field of wastewater treatment or effluent treatment plants and biodegradation of environmental contaminants for environmental safety and sustainable development.

• Provides wide information to readers on state-of-the-art applications of microbes for wastewater/industrial effluent treatment and environmental protection


• Summarizes our current knowledge on the use of various microbes, even the use of dead biomass for dye decolorization and degradation


• Explores different aspects of biological methods for contaminant removal and better advanced biotechnological applications
