Wastewater Treatment : Occurrence and Fate of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) PDF
Edited by Amy J. (Xylem Inc., Sundbyberg, Sweden) Forsgren
Part of the Advances in Water and Wastewater Transport and Treatment series
Description
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a group of semi-volatile organic compounds that are formed during the incomplete burning of gas, coal, oil, wood, garbage, or other organic substances.
PAHs are a concern because a number of them have been identified as genotoxic and/or carcinogenic.
They pose a threat to ecological systems and can cause health problems.
A significant source of PAHs is the effluent of wastewater treatment plants.
This book explores the occurrence and the treatability of PAHs in wastewater treatment.
