Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Clean drinking water is essential for the survival of all living organisms. In drinking water, contaminants such as metal ions, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and water-borne microbes have harmful health effects and substantial environmental concerns. Their removal from water is necessary for human health and environmental stewardship. This Special Issue aims to collect and present all breakthrough research on all wastewater treatment technologies. The scope of this Special Issue covers (but is not limited to) the following themes:

  1. Conventional and advanced water treatment technologies such as adsorption, degradation, membrane technology, etc.
  2. Microbial assays in wastewater treatment processes.
