Beschreibung:
Pesticides Remediation Technologies from Water and Wastewater focuses on environmental aspects and health effects of pesticides, the use of conventional and AOPs technologies, and adsorption processes and nanomaterials for the removal of pesticides from water and wastewater. The deterioration of water quality is of great concern due to its effects on aquatic organisms, humans and the ecosystem. Among the pollutants, pesticides are a major concern in villages and farm land. This edited book bridges the gap between old and new knowledge about the categorization of pesticides, the presence of them in water, wastewater, soil and foods, and new methods to detect them from water matrices.
Section 1. Health effects of pesticides and its analytical techniques 1. Pesticides and its Human Health Implications 2. Presence, fate and transport of sulfonylurea herbicides in soils 3. Analytical methodologies and techniques for pesticide residue analysis
