Industrial Water Reclamation and Reuse to Minimize Liquid Discharge

This book serves as a comprehensive summary of water reclamation technologies and practices for minimizing liquid discharge for a broad range of industries. It is of use to practitioners, consultants, management, and research and development professionals who want a timely update on the technologies in use and on those technologies on the horizon to provide the highest rates of water recovery in industrial practice. The industrial sectors covered include oil and gas (unconventional oil and gas and produced and petroleum refining water), pharmaceutical, textile, automotive, manufacturing, energy, and food and beverage. The book covers a much broader perspective than North America, including technology development and sustainable applications within the water-scarce yet growing regions of Central and South America, Asia, and the Middle East.
