Conventional Methods for the Removal of Industrial Pollutants, Their Merits and Demerits

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Emerging and Eco-Friendly Approaches for Waste Management

Abstract

Release of unprocessed and incompletely treated industrial wastes signifies a severe environmental threat regarding anthropological and ecological health concerns. An appropriate treatment approach that may be fruitful for waste management in a cost-effective and eco-friendly manner is becoming more important and a critical issue all over the world. There are various conventional, emerging, advanced, and biological treatment methodologies available that are suitable for wastewater remediation. In recent years, researchers have made notable achievements by means of conventional, biotechnological applications for the treatment and degradation of hazardous pollutants and noxious organic and inorganic combinations. Moreover, promising outcomes were achieved by these conventional treatment technologies, but they also have some drawbacks. Therefore, this chapter delivers an impression of the usage, advantages, and shortcomings of current technologies available for the effective management of waste products generated by industrial activities and their economically feasible alternatives.
