Food and Agricultural Wastewater Utilization and Treatment focuses on the cost-effective treatment
technologies specific for food and agriculture wastewater and possible economical recovery of
valuable substances from wastewater during common food processing and postharvest operations
using innovative technologies. The technologies included in the book are not a mere collection
of all known relevant technologies. Instead, priority consideration is given to those technologies
that can not only solve the environmental problem of wastewater disposal but also reduce
the wastewater management cost in the long run for food and agriculture industries.
The book combines past decades of research on food and agricultural wastewater issues with an
abundance of emerging research on innovative separation technologies to separate biological molecules
from complex biological systems. Food technologists as well as environmental and agricultural
engineers/scientists will find this book invaluable in their quest of improving food and agricultural
wastewater management.
