Preface
The over increasing fresh market wastewater has associated with the growing
concern over their fate and effects on the environment after being discharged or
reused for irrigation. The disposal of fresh market wastewater into the environment
and natural water system represents a serious worldwide problem due to the
increased environmental awareness and stringent environmental standards governing which was set by different environmental protection agencies. The potential
risks derived from the presence of pathogenic bacteria and organic compounds must
be taken into consideration. The developments in the treatment technologies to
produce high quality of fresh market wastewater is being devoted to safely reused.
The current book is an effort for researchers in the field of fresh market who
believed that this is the right time to write a reference book to discuss on the current
practice of fresh market wastewater management. The main target of this book is
the academicians and researchers who would find more meaningful information on
the management and recent treatment technologies of fresh market wastewater in
the developed and developing countries.
This book aimed to discuss the proper management of fresh market wastewater.
It provides a comprehensive review and referenced information on the fresh market
wastewater in order to highlight its risk alongside the benefits. The book consists of
10 chapters. Chapter 1 describes the current management practices of fresh market
wastes and thier impacts on environmental health. Chapter 2 addresses the applicability of natural coagulates for wastewater treatment. Chapter 3 reviews the
application of nanotechnology in the inactivation of pathogenic bacteria in the
wastewater. Chapter 4 focuses on the current situation for the fresh market
wastewater treatment. Chapter 5 highlighted the production of microalgae in fresh
market wastewater and its utilization as a protein substitute in formulated fish feed.
Chapter 6 reviews microbial fuel cells as a green and alternative source for
bioenergy production. Chapter 7 views the advantages for swim-bed technology in
reducing seafood processing wastewater. Chapter 8 discusses biofilter aquaponic
system for nutrients removal from fresh market wastewater. Chapter 9 highlights
