Environmental Materials and Waste: Resource Recovery and Pollution Preventioncontains the latest information on environmental sustainability as a wide variety of natural resources are increasingly being exploited to meet the demands of a worldwide growing population and economy. These raw materials cannot, or can only partially, be substituted by renewable resources within the next few decades. As such, the efficient recovery and processing of mineral and energy resources, as well as recycling such resources, is now of significant importance.The book takes a multidisciplinary approach to fully realize the number of by-products which can be remanufactured, providing the foundation needed across disciplines to tackle this issue. As awareness and opportunities to recover valuable resources from process and bleed streams is gaining interest, sustainable recovery of environmental materials, including wastewater, offers tremendous opportunity to combine profitable and sustainable production. Presents a state-of-the-art guide to environmental sustainabilityProvides an overview of the field highlighting recent and emerging issues in environmental resource recovery that cover a wide array of by-products for remanufacture potential Details a multidisciplinary approach to fully realize the number of by-products which can be remanufactured, providing the foundation needed across disciplines to tackle these global issues

"Offering a comprehensive overview of microplastics in terrestrial environments, the book is a valuable resource for environmental researchers, soil chemists, ecologists and toxicologists, as well as for policymakers and non-experts. It presents a compilation of compelling insights into the fundamentals of microplastics, with a specific focus on the environmental interactions and subsequent management strategies to mitigate the persistent contamination of microplastics"
