The World Health Organization in 2004 estimated approximately 1.1 billion people did not have access to clean water and that 35% of Third World residents died from water-borne illnesses. While the situation is grim, recent advances strongly indicate that many of the current water quality problems can be addresses - and potentially resolved - using nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is already having a dramatic impact on research in water quality and Nanotechnology Applications for Clean Water highlights both the challenges and the opportunities for nanotechnology to positively influence this area of environmental protection. Here you will find detailed information on breakthroughs, cutting edge technologies, current research, and future trends that may affect acceptance of widespread applications. The first four parts of the book cover specific topics including using nanotechnology for clean drinking water in both large scale water treatment plants and in point-of-use systems. For instance, recent advances show that many of the current problems involving water quality can be addressed using nanosorbents, nanocatalysts, bioactive nanoparticles, nanostructured catalytic membranes, and nanoparticle enhanced filtration. The book also discusses existing technologies and future potential for groundwater remediation, pollution prevention, and sensors. The final part discusses the inherent societal implications that may affect acceptance of widespread applications.

Make sure your boiler runs at maximum efficiency! Do you know how much make-up water you need in your boiler? How much blowdown? How to calculate the amount of chemical you need to add, and when/ This guide provides answers to these and many more questions about water treatment in industrial plants. It gives you a solid understanding of water treatment problems and solutions, so you can improve treatment efficiency and communicate more effectively with water treatment specialists and chief engineers. The guide presents technical details of water treatment in a clear, precise, and easy-to-understand manner to help you with your daily concerns. It includes helpful suggestions for the plant operator on how to calculate amounts of chemical to be used in steam boilers, cooling towers, and ion exchange equipment. It also discusses scale, corrosion, algae growth, microbiological growth, and the chemicals and equipment used to control these problems. And it covers pumps, poump calculations, hydronic systems, control devices, and treatments.

Water wordt in de industrie in de meest diverse processen gebruikt en met verschillende doelstellingen. Dit brengt met zich mee dat een enorme variteit aan contaminanten in bedrijfsafvalwater kunnen voorkomen, in diverse combinaties en concentraties. In dit rapport is een inventaris terug te vinden van de technieken die momenteel op industriële schaal toegepast worden voor de zuivering van industrieel afvalwater. In het totaal worden er 52 technieken (14 biologische, 9 chemische, 25 fysische en 4 andere technieken) besproken. Daarnaast bevat dit rapport een papieren weergave van het beslisondersteunend systeem (WASS, WAterzuiveringsSelectieSysteem). WASS is een hulpmiddel om, uitgaande van een specifiek afvalwater, geschikte combinaties van waterzuiveringstechnieken te kiezen.
