Ozonation-Based Treatment of Water and Wastewater: Advancements and Environmental Applications offers a comprehensive exploration of ozone and related oxidation methods for eliminating harmful contaminants from drinking water and wastewater. Beginning with an overview of water resource management, pollution sources, and treatment limitations, the book delves into the principles and mechanisms of ozonation, including operational factors and impacts. Subsequent chapters include advancements in ozone nano bubble technology that are supported by mathematical models and reaction kinetics. Discussions of the practical applications of ozone-based processes in water treatment are also explored.

A necessary guide for students and researchers in water science, this book provides a blend of foundational knowledge and cutting-edge insights presented in an accessible manner with real-world case studies.
