Nature-Based Solutions for Urban Sustainability

Nature-Based Solutions for Urban Sustainability provides comprehensive insights on existing technologies and up-to-date advances in the field of water, wastewater and waste treatment using nature-based approaches and systems.This book highlights:· Process fundamentals of nature-based solutions, including hydrodynamics, media, bacteria/media interactions and phytoremediation for pollution control, resource recovery and energy generation.· Critical insights on the status, major challenges and modern engineering solutions in nature-based solutions for the treatment of rainwater, storm water, wastewater and solid waste.· Advanced methods for valorisation using nature-based solutions through integration with other technologies, such as composting, anaerobic digestion and bioelectrochemical systems.· Up-to-date information on modern approaches for deriving value-added operation, by combining nature-based solutions with agricultural practices such as fish farming or protein production.· Case studies of nature-based solutions from countries in transition including Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and Philippines.This reference textbook is recommended reading for both undergraduate and graduate students pursuing degrees in environmental sciences, technologies, or engineering. It is equally useful for a broader audience including researchers, engineers, and policy makers interested in the field of nature-based solutions for urban sustainability. It is also tailored to be used as an advanced manual for practitioners and consultancies working in the field of diffuse pollution and climate change mitigation.
