This book was released on 2000 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ecohazard '99 conference brought together scientists, engineers, administrators and policy-makers from around the world who work in the fields of environmental and ecological toxicology to exchange the latest information on hazardous chemicals in the environment. There were a large number of contributions on endocrine disruption in ecosystems, possibly the hottest issue of the moment, but significant work was also reported on DNA-damaging chemicals, heavy metals and other environmental toxic substances. From the papers presented at the conference 48 have been selected for these proceedings. They focus on the following topics: detection of endocrine disruptors; detection of genotoxic contaminants; heavy metal and radionuclide contamination; PCDDs, PCBs and organochlorine contamination; ecological toxicity assessment; environmental risk assessment; hazardous contaminants in wastewaters; physico-chemical treatment of hazardous contaminants; biological treatment of environmental contaminants; and advanced analytical methods.

Download or read book Global Environmental Change written by Kirill Y. Kondratyev and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing number of published works dedicated to global environmental change leads to the realization that protection of the natural environment has become an urgent problem. The question of working out principles of co evolution of man and nature is being posed with ever-increasing persistence. Scientists in many countries are attempting to find ways of formulating laws governing human processes acting on the environment. Numerous national and international programs regarding biosphere and climate studies contribute to the quest for means of resolving the conflict between human society and nature. However, attempts to find efficient methods of regulating human activity on a global scale encounter principal difficulties. The major difficulty is the lack of an adequate knowledge base pertaining to climatic and biospheric processes as wen as the largely incomplete state of the databases concerning global processes occurring in the atmosphere, in the ocean, and on land. Another difficulty is the inability of modern science to formulate the requirements which must be met by the global databases necessary for reliable evaluation of the state of the environ ment and fore casting its development for sufficiently long time intervals.

Book Synopsis Extracellular Polymeric Substances - the Construction Material of Biofilms by : Hans-Curt Flemming
Download or read book Extracellular Polymeric Substances - the Construction Material of Biofilms written by Hans-Curt Flemming and published by IWA Publishing (International Water Assoc). This book was released on 2001-03-31 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microbial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) provide the structural matrix for all microbial aggregates such as biofilms, flocs and sludge, and are of great technical and ecological importance. EPS provide and form the space between biofilm cells, mediating both cohesion and adhesion. They serve as a multipurpose functional matrix for microbial communities, which allows the establishment of stable microconsortia. The EPS matrix governs diffusional and convectional mass transport because it occurs in various densities, including void spaces such as pores and channels. This creates different types of physico-chemical gradients, providing habitats in which aerobic and anaerobic organisms can coexist in close proximity and largely independent of the conditions in the water phase. Major aspects of EPS include mechanical stability, as in the case of biofouling when unwanted biofilms have to be removed, and the stability of biofilms in bioreactors; interaction with substrata in bioleaching, biocorrosion, and biodeterioration; sorption capacity for dissolved and particulate substances (biosorption), representing both a sink and source of sorbed material; enhanced resistance of biofilm organisms to biocides. The 25 peer-reviewed articles selected for these proceedings provde both a starting point for newcomers to the field and a state-of-the-art survey for the more experienced. With a diversity of approaches, ranging from sophisticated microanalysis to industrial applications, these papers provide a broad understanding of EPS from the viewpoints of microbiologists, polymer scientists, chemists and engineers, and showing how EPS may be seen as the key to understanding and controlling all forms of microbial aggregates.

Download or read book Water Security for the 21st Century written by SIWI and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2001-03-31 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected Proceedings of the 10th Stockholm Water Symposium Organised by Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI). The 10th Stockholm Water Symposium, "Water Security for the 21st Century - Innovative Approaches," examined how to cope with the creeping but predictive water-related problems due to population growth, urbanization and industralization. The Symposium highlighted actions and appropriate innovative solutions in striving towards a transition from problem focus to opportunity focus, and it showed how to proceed to produce more with less water, and with less pollution loads. More than 900 leading experts discussed how key barriers - institutional as well as mental - can be overcome by increasing water awareness, literacy, solidarity and stewardship in society through innovative educational campaigns in an effort to make water everybody's business. Topics explored included innovative water-efficiency practices such as: irrigation with non-conventional water agriculture to minimize plant evaporation social and gender dimensions in water management integrated approaches to land use water resources socio-economic and ecological demands which impact on every community (large or small), and much more. The future-oriented, multi disciplinary Stockholm Water Symposia are convened annually by the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI), a scientific, technical and awareness-building organization that contributes to international efforts to combat the escalating global water crisis. SIWI facilitates research, raises understanding and stimulates action on world water issues.

Book Synopsis Sludge Management for the 21st Century by : Goen Ho
Download or read book Sludge Management for the 21st Century written by Goen Ho and published by IWA Publishing (International Water Assoc). This book was released on 2000 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With improvements in wastewater treatment has come an increase in the production of sewage sludge. In addition the materials disposed into the sewerage system by modern society mean that sludge is not only rich in organic carbon and pathogens, but also in heavy metals and other pollutants. The IWA Specialist Group in Sludge Management recognised these challenges, and is addressing them in a series of specialist conferences: the one in April 1999 in Perth, Australia focused on thermal processes and their management. With over a hundred participants from more than 30 countries the conference proved highly successful. These proceedings contain papers which were selected from the original 37 presentations after passing through the review process. Papers covered the whole range of thermal processes: hydrothermal oxidation, gasification, pyrolysis, incineration, melting to reuse of process residues. Management issues and assessment of sustainability of thermal processes based on life-cycle analyses were debated, with a focus on "value-adding" sludge management systems and renewable resource options.
