Summary
"Bioremediation: A Sustainable Approach to Preserving Earth's Water discusses the latest research in green chemistry practices and principles that are involved in water remediation and the quality improvement of water. The presence of heavy metals, dyes, fluoride, dissolved solids and many other pollutants are responsible for water pollution and poor water quality. The removal of these pollutants in water resources is necessary, yet challenging. Water...

"Although many were skeptical of the green chemistry movement at first, it has become a multimillion-dollar business. In preventing the creation of hazardous wastes, laboratories and corporations can save millions in clean up efforts and related health costs. This book supplies students with concepts commonly taught in undergraduate general chemistry and general engineering courses, but with a green perspective. It is unique in presenting an integrated...

"As the world struggles with sustainable practices and policies regarding environmental protection, green sustainable energy is a key player. The chemistries involving energy production must be efficient, but also must evolve and change to meet new restrictions and footprint guidelines. Rather than only being seen as a necessary evil, energy through GSE must become a key piece in the sustainability puzzle. The green sustainable energies presented...
