    Abstract: This book provides insights and a capacity to understand the climate change phenomenon, its impact on water resources, and possible remedial measures. The impact of climate change on water resources is a global issue and cause for concern. Water resources in many countries are extremely stressed, and climate change along with burgeoning populations, the rise in living standards, and increasing demand on resources are factors which serve to exacerbate this stress. The chapters provide information on tools that will be useful to mitigate the adverse consequences of natural disasters. Fundamental to addressing these issues is hydrological modelling which is discussed in this book and ways to combat climate change as an important aspect of water resource management.

    Advanced Treatment Technologies for Fluoride Removal in Water : Water Purification (2023)
    Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :
    Details
    Keywords: Water. ; Hydrology. ; Pollution. ; Environmental management. ; Environmental health. ; Sustainability. ; Water. ; Pollution. ; Environmental Management. ; Environmental Health. ; Sustainability.
    Description / Table of Contents: Introduction -- Part-I: Remediation and management strategies -- Chapter 1: Fluoride contamination in water and its management -- Chapter 2: Fluoride pollution control techniques and principles -- Chapter 3: Hybrid phytoremediation of fluoride and its remediation strategies -- Part-II: Fluoride removal treatments -- Chapter 4: Physicochemical and biological methods for the removal of fluoride -- Chapter 5: Removal of fluoride from water through iron-based adsorbents -- Chapter 6: Removal of fluoride from water through fly-ash beds -- Chapter 7: Fluoride removal from industrial wastewater using filtration and chemical precipitation -- Part-III: Fluoride effect on human health -- Chapter 8: Fluoride contamination, health problems and remediation, methods in water: A comprehensive review -- Chapter 9: Effect of fluoride pollution on the living beings with an emphasis on human health hazard -- Chapter 10: Nutritional status and dental fluorosis among humans in communities with different water source fluoride concentrations -- Part-IV: Status, government policy, and environmental regulating bodies -- Chapter 11: Global perspective scenario: fluoride contamination in water -- Chapter 12: Government rules and public involvement of wastewater discharge containing fluoride -- Chapter 13: Future frameworks for fluoride and algorithms for environmental systems -- Part-V: Concluding remarks along with recommendation.
    Abstract: This book presents an overview of the techniques available today for the removal of fluoride contamination/pollutants/species from water. Also covered are traditionally applied techniques for the removal of fluoride pollutants/species, including oxidation, coagulation-flocculation, and membrane techniques. Recently, progress has been made on the utility of various nanoparticles for the extraction of contaminants from water. Fluoride contamination is affecting water resources quality worldwide as a result of human activities, such as mining and pesticide use. Due to the high risk of fluoride exposure, specific water treatment processes are required to meet more severe water quality standards. A better understanding of currently available processes is necessary to develop economical, efficient, and effective methods for fluoride removal. Fluoride can either be coated, adsorbed using a wide range of both mineral and organic constituents or can be directly rejected by membrane processes, such as reverse osmosis and nanofiltration. Recent developments of submerged hybrid membrane systems, such as membrane bioreactors in wastewater treatment, provide alternative technologies for fluoride treatment. .

    Description / Table of Contents: Identification of the parameters to estimate the capillary rise from shallow groundwater table using field crop experiments -- Study of Groundwater Table fluctuation in the command area of Bhagwanpur Distributary of the Eastern Gandak Project -- Assessment of heavy metals in sediments from exploratory wells for riverbank filtration sites impacted by extreme environmental conditions using principal component analysis -- Simulation of re-aeration coefficient using ANFIS and ARIMA models -- Identification of unknown number of clandestine groundwater pollution source locations and their release flux histories - by Anirban Chakraborty and Om Prakash. .
    Abstract: This book deals with topics of current interest, such as climate change, floods, drought, and hydrological extremes. The impact of climate change on water resources is drawing worldwide attention these days, for water resources in many countries are already stressed and climate change along with burgeoning population, rising standard of living, and increasing demand are adding to the stress. Further, river basins are becoming less resilient to climatic vagaries. Fundamental to addressing these issues is hydrological modelling which is covered in these books. Further, integrated water resources management is vital to ensure water and food security. Integral to the management is groundwater and solute transport. The books encompass tools that will be useful to mitigate the adverse consequences of natural disasters. This book provides many new and innovative methods to assess groundwater and estimate water pollution. Groundwater recharge, solute transport, ground water modelling are some of the important variable used to estimate the groundwater movement, hydraulic gradient and pollution movement. The water quality is another important variable of river Ganga and its tributaries in India and other rivers over the globe. .
