Emerging Technologies for Removal of Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products: State of the Art, Challenges and Future Perspectives provides a holistic overview on the recent advances and challenges associated with pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCP) removal from water and wastewater. The book covers advanced remediation technologies such as microbial fuel cells (MFCs), microalgae and hybrid technologies and focuses on the environmental sustainability of each technology, using life cycle assessment. The book helps students and researchers in carrying out research on further advancements in the field and to how apply this to the real-world conditions.
