This book analyzes the harmful effects of conventional waste treatments and pollution monitoring methods on the environment. It critically evaluates these methods and highlights their shortcomings that have significantly damaged the environment. The book provides a comprehensive overview of alternative waste and pollution treatment methods that can be adopted locally and internationally. It also examines appropriate resource management strategies for environmental issues and emphasizes the need for sustainable resource management practices. The book highlights the importance of education in achieving ecological sustainability, particularly in urban waste management. It elaborates on how education can raise awareness and promote sustainable waste management practices.

Furthermore, the book presents the latest research topics, innovative ideas, and remediation strategies for various hazardous pollutants related to environmental issues and solutions. It provides a detailed analysis of the different remediation strategies and highlights their effectiveness in tackling environmental issues. The book also explores the innovative use of nanotechnology to achieve ecological sustainability and economic feasibility in wastewater treatment. One of the standout features of this approach is the use of microbial consortiums, which offer significant advantages over pure cultures. The need for hybrid treatment technology to effectively remediate different types of organic and inorganic pollutants from wastewater is also explored.

In addition, the book highlights the application of green technology for waste management, providing innovative solutions using advanced green technologies that promote international cooperation and networking to achieve a sustainable environment. It covers advanced green technologies used to manage energy and bioproducts from waste, such as biofuel, biopolymers, fertilizers, and chemicals, without causing harm to the environment.

Covers global waste management practices to mitigate pollution challenges Explores modern green technologies that convert waste into valuable products to improve the environment Covers exclusive case studies that explore advanced remediation technologies
