Overview
Phycoremediation is an alternative method of water and wastewater remediation, which includes the use of algae for treatment, and is an environmentally friendly and sustainable technology. More conventional methods of wastewater treatment have been successful in the removal of conventional contaminants from the water; however, these techniques typically require more time and energy than phycoremediation. Phycoremediation of Wastewater: Practical Applications for Sustainability focuses on the latest developments in water remediation as well as the major challenges faced by municipalities implementing large-scale phycoremediation operations. It addresses the latest advancements in the field as well as the future applications and techniques to make water remediation processes more environmentally sustainable. It focuses on the latest developments in phycoremediation and outlines the major challenges in large-scale operation and implementation. It explores the future scope of the remediation techniques to make processes more sustainable going forward.
