Providing an understanding of the fate and mitigation strategies for emerging and geogenic contaminants in the groundwater: removal techniques and mitigation approaches; treatment strategies, including bioremediation and natural attenuation; environmental assessment, groundwater vulnerability, health effects and regulations.
With an increased demand for wastewater reuse, groundwater recharge with treated wastewater has been practised across the globe. As a result, groundwater quality deteriorates by emerging micropollutants from various anthropogenic origins, including untreated wastewater, seepage of landfill leachate, and runoff from agricultural lands. The fate of such emerging and geogenic contaminants in subsurface systems, especially in the groundwater, depends on several factors. Physicochemical properties of contaminants such as octanol-water partition coefficient, dissociation constant, water-solubility, susceptibility to biodegradation under anaerobic conditions, and environmental persistence under diverse geological and pH conditions play an acritical role during subsurface mass flow. Thus, advanced wastewater treatment techniques, followed by implementing stricter guidelines, are some of the measures that can safeguard water resources.
This book, in general, gives an understanding of the fate and mitigation strategies for emerging and geogenic contaminants in the groundwater. The first and second sections provide a detailed insight into various removal techniques and mitigation approaches. Possible treatment strategies, including bioremediation and natural attenuation, are also covered in those sections. Environmental assessment, groundwater vulnerability, health effects and regulations pertaining to various contaminants are systematically presented in the third section.
