Popis: |
Water pollution and sustainable energy production are the two major concerns in the current scenario. The total freshwater content of the earth is less than 1% part of which is polluted with organic and inorganic debris from industries. Energy production is another issue which arises due to the depletion of fossil fuels and hence the need for finding an alternate source of sustainable energy is in demand. Both of these issues can be resolved concurrently using the integrated adsorption or oxidation based microbial fuel cells. Such integrated systems are highly advantageous especially when recalcitrant pollutants are present in the water ecosystem. In a nutshell, this chapter deals with the list of priority organic and inorganic pollutants in water ecosystem, the available adsorption and oxidation techniques for the disintegration of organic water pollutants, specific systems formed by combined oxidation and adsorption techniques, integration of pollutant removal with sustainable energy-producing systems and the advances in integrated prototypes for environmental remediation. One of the advanced integrated oxidation based microbial fuel cell system is the bioelectro-Fenton system where Fenton reaction is carried out for the degradation of pollutants through OH radical formation with the simultaneous formation of electrons. |
