This book covers a number of water treatment issues relevant to either improving the common traditional treatment methods or to new advanced and innovative approaches.

Environmentally benign operation of chemical processes have attracted significant attention over the past decades. In removal of heavy metal ions from waste effluents, membrane technology has become increasingly attractive as a low-cost generic separation technique for environmental problems. Membrane processes compete with a variety of processes, such as chemical precipitation, metallic replacement, ion exchange, electrolysis, adsorption, flotation and biological approaches
