Sommario/riassunto |
|
The 'Handbook of Water Pollution' is an extensive compilation edited by Inamuddin, Tariq Altalhi, and Arwa Alrooqi, providing a comprehensive overview of water pollution. It explores various types and sources of water pollutants, including organic, inorganic, biological, and radiological. The book addresses the prevalence and effects of water pollution on humans and the environment, while also discussing the techniques for treating and preventing pollution. Key topics include the impact of agrochemicals, antimicrobial resistance due to fecal waste, and the role of biotechnology in controlling pollution. The book serves as a valuable resource for environmental scientists, policymakers, and educators aiming to understand and mitigate water pollution. |
