An internationally acclaimed, Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (UK) Prof. Sanjay K. Sharma, FRSC is a Ph.D. (1999) in Organic Chemistry from Rajasthan University, Jaipur, India and is a renowned author and editor of many books, research journals, and hundreds of articles from last twenty years. He has authored over 100 Research papers including many comprehensive Review articles in high-impact journals of international repute and contributed 21 Books from the internationally acclaimed publication houses so far.
For his contribution in the area of Green Chemistry and Environmental Sustainability, he has also been included in the "World Ranking of Top 2% Scientists" for last two consecutive years (i.e. 2020 and 2021) published by Stanford University, USA. Presently Prof. Sharma is working as Professor of Chemistry and Dean (Research) at JECRC University, Jaipur, India.
Processing of water is a major activity that affects health and
safety in all countries of the world. While many water treatment
processes have a long history of development and improvement, there
is continuing progress both in terms of remediating new chemicals
found in effluents and through ongoing laboratory research. The ten
chapters in this book address varied subjects such as green
chemistry in water processing, biofunctionalized adsorbents,
biodegradation and adsorption of dyes, synthesis of adsorbents,
olive oil waste treatment, and processing of industrial effluents.
Notably, more than five thousand publications related to
remediation of water have been gathered in a bibliometric study;
the results are presented in chapter 2. Chapter 4 covers adsorption
of heavy metals and includes information on many equilibrium
isotherms. Bioremediation of industrial contaminants found in soil
as well as industrial effluents are discussed in chapter 8. This
chapter includes tables of effective microorganisms for
biodegradation of different industrial wastes. All chapters,
indeed, provide numerous citations and references as well as
helpful tables and figures. Contributing authors hail from many
different countries including Brazil, Colombia, India, Indonesia,
Portugal, and Turkey. This collection will be especially useful for
scholars and civil engineers concerned with preserving water
resources through remediation.--L. E. Erickson, emeritus, Kansas
State University, Choice Reviews and Highly RecommendedSumming Up:
Highly recommended. All readers.
