Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to explore innovative approaches and advancements in bioremediation techniques and nutrient recovery systems specifically tailored towards addressing emerging pollutants in wastewater. With escalating concerns about pollutants like pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and other emerging contaminants, this Special Issue focuses on cutting-edge research, methodologies, and case studies showcasing the efficacy of bioremediation strategies. Additionally, it delves into integrating nutrient recovery processes within wastewater treatment, emphasizing sustainable and eco-friendly solutions that not only remove pollutants but also harness valuable resources from wastewater streams. This collection of contributions will offer insights into the latest breakthroughs, challenges, and future directions in the field, presenting a comprehensive understanding of the pivotal role of bioremediation and nutrient recovery in mitigating the impacts of emerging pollutants on the environment and human health.
Submissions are invited and encouraged on the specific topics below:
- Advanced bioremediation techniques;
- Nutrient recovery innovations;
- Emerging contaminants and their impacts;
- Bio-based materials for remediation;
- Integration of bioremediation and nutrient recovery.
Both case studies and real-world applications and welcome.
