"Increase in the population has led to rapid industrialization, thus leading to pollution at all levels. With industries of various types discharging their all types of effluents in various sources of water, a constant need has been felt for recycling of these effluents, before discharging them in to these sources.

The book makes an attempt to equip it's readers with each and every aspect of recycling of industrial effluents. The entire book provides adequate information from the vary basics to various types of recycling techniques.

Key features:

Covers topics like water pollution, sustainable development, groundwater pollution, forest degradation, various treatment and recycling technologies. 
Information about all types of industries, effluents discharged from them and their treatment processes.
The main sources of polluting effluents characterized accordingly with processes, comparisons with the discharge standards.
Sequencing of treatment as per the three conventional stages of recycling, using both the chemical and biological methods.
Adequate equations and formulas enrich the book.
Specific case studies for different types of recycling plants and industries using them.

The book is a must buy for graduates, postgraduates, researchers, policy makers in the field of environmental sciences, hydrology, geosciences, forestry, industrial pollution, bioremediation studies and above all to all those who are concerned with environment."
