Development in Waste Water Treatment Research and Processes: Role of Environmental Microbiology in Industrial Wastewater Research focuses on environmental bioremediation concepts, providing a comprehensive view of recent trends and emerging technologies in environmental bioremediation, addressing current limitations and challenges pertaining to generally accepted and applied bioremediation strategies, and discussing corrective strategies for the removal of pollutants from the environment. Describing the broader role of environmental microbiology specifically in the treatment of industrial wastewater research, the book includes sections on the recovery of resources from wastewater that will be of interest to environmental microbiologists, biotechnologists, environmental engineers, chemical engineers, and those working in the bioremediation field.

About the author
Dr. Maulin P. Shah is an active researcher and microbial biotechnologist with diverse research interest. His primary interest is the environment, the quality of our living resources and the ways that bacteria can help to manage and degrade toxic wastes and restore environmental health. Consequently, His work has been focused to assess the impact of industrial pollution on microbial diversity of wastewater following cultivation dependant and cultivation independent analysis.
Dr Nidhi Shah, visiting assistant professor in analytical chemistry at Indiana university southeast, US. Her research interests are in synthesis of metal nanoparticles and electrochemistry. She did her masters in organic chemistry from India and PhD from University of Louisville, US. Her article on electrochemical synthesis of silver nanorods on to interdigitated gold electrodes got accepted in a high impact factor journal ACS Nano. This research article showed potential application in resistive switches. Her current research interest is electrochemical synthesis of silver nanorods on electrode surfaces. She teaches analytical chemistry courses to undergraduates at Indiana University.
