Description
Summary:This book addresses sustainability and continuing developments in water and environmental sciences and engineering. The main message is focused on the need for scientists and engineers to adopt both advanced technology platform and multi-disciplinary approach towards providing innovative and sustainable solution to current and future environmental problems. This book has a humble beginning, with a small group of researchers comprising mainly of postgraduate students working diligently in various laboratories at Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Malaysia. Since then, the small group of researchers has grown in numbers and later became affiliated to myBioRec, a research centre that was set up to explore biological based solutions to environmental problems. Currently myBioRec has created researchers with an understanding of sustainability and the need for multi-disciplinary approach adopting advanced and integrated technologies. This book showcases aspects of research related to management of water resources and water demand, innovative treatment of municipal and industrial wastewater, bioremediation of contaminated soil and potential exploitation of bioenergy. Finally, it is hope that this book may inspire young scientists and engineers in embracing a multi-diciplinary approach to solve environmental problems as our economic and social well being is very much dependent on the well being of the environment.
