SynopsisThe classic environmental biotechnology textbook--fully updated for the latest advances Written by two of the field's foremost researchers, this comprehensive educational resource presents the biological principles that underlie modern microbiological treatment technologies. This thoroughly revised second edition addresses the new technologies that have evolved over the past twenty years, including microbial electrochemistry, granular processes, membrane-based processes, and direct anaerobic treatments. Environmental Biotechnology: Principles and Applications, Second Edition takes you through the procedures to understand how microbial systems work and to design a treatment process. The first half of the book is focused on the principles, the tools for describing the stoichiometry and energetics of microbial reactions, and the proper application of kinetics. The second half offers practical applications that are clearly illustrated through real-world examples. - Relates basic principles and concepts to practical applications for environmental treatment - Covers emerging technologies and processes that have emerged in recent years - Written by a pair of award-winning environmental engineers and experienced educators, Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.
