Shape the future of the environment with this comprehensive guide to solutions for the future of waste management through bioengineering.

As global industries and healthcare systems continue to expand, the need for effective and sustainable waste management strategies has become more critical. The improper disposal of industrial and biomedical waste in open dumps and landfills carries the risk of providing environmental entry points for toxic compounds like heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, inorganic macrocomponents, and xenobiotic organic compounds. In spite of the health hazards and environmental risks, the management of industrial and biomedical pollutants is not prioritized in many parts of the world, creating demand for the development of effective, eco-friendly, cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable bio-based technologies to monitor and protect the environment from harmful waste. This book highlights the characteristics, aims, and applications of advanced biotechnological methods as the ultimate solution for sustainable management of a critically polluted environment. Expert insights will introduce a sustainable biotechnological approach for the remediation of industrial and biomedical wastes and their advancement, including its technical, scientific, regulatory, safety, and societal impacts.

Readers will find the volume:

Introduces intelligent applications in high-priority waste and wastewater collection and management for supporting ecological sustainability; Presents the state-of-the-art in emerging technologies for resource recovery from industrial and biomedical waste and wastewater, and linear and circular bioeconomy models; Highlights integrated bioengineering systems for biomedical waste clean-up using high-throughput approaches with zero discharge, and their computational approaches and techno-economic feasibility; Explores future research for biotechnological intervention to fix the environmental issues and scientific challenges for sustainability.

Audience

Biotechnologists, microbiologists, nanotechnologists, environmental biotechnologists, industrialists, municipal and environmental engineers, and policymakers looking for strategies to deal with challenges of current environmental issues and waste management in sustainable and effective manners.
