Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nowadays, water contamination and freshwater scarcity have become serious issues worldwide, posing threats to both public health and the environment. It is therefore essential and important that more sustainable processes be developed in order to solve these water-related problems. Sustainable water and wastewater treatment not only detoxicify wastewater and produce clean water, but also reutilize the energy resources and nutrient materials contained in wastewater. From a technical perspective, the emergence of novel technologies and processes makes it possible for sustainable water and wastewater treatment. However, in practice, there still exist some challenges in selecting the most suitable treatment approach, which should consider technical, economic, and environmental benefits.
The aim of this Special Issue, entitled “Sustainable Water and Wastewater Treatment: Theory, Methods, and Applications”, is to provide scientists with access to the latest research articles as well as review articles in water and sustainable wastewater treatment.
Dr. Wei Wei
