Emerging Contaminants in Terrestrial and Aquatic Environments: Occurrence, Health Risks, and Mitigation in Developing Countries is the first to present a synthesis of the occurrence, behaviour, human health risks and mitigation of emerging contaminants in developing countries. First highlighting the nature, sources, industrial applications, key drivers, and regulatory frameworks pertaining to emerging contaminants in developing countries the book goes on to discuss the nature of emerging contaminants, including organic (e.g., pharmaceuticals), inorganic (e.g., rare earth elements) and biological agents (e.g., antimicrobial resistance. It then presents the dissemination, environmental behavior, and fate in terrestrial and aquatic systems as well as the human and ecological exposure pathways and health risks, including ecotoxicology and health risk assessments. Then, conventional water and wastewater processes for both centralized and decentralized systems for the removal of emerging contaminants are discussed. Moreover, emerging and advanced methods, which are currently less used in developing countries are presented, including their prospects and limitations. Finally, future perspectives, including research needs, are highlighted. Offering a transdisciplinary approach, bringing together perspectives and contributions from experts in environmental sciences, hydrology, environmental engineering, ecotoxicology, chemistry, material sciences, and legal and policy aspects Emerging Contaminants in Terrestrial and Aquatic Environments offers an approachable and flexible resource for researchers and upper-level students with diverse academic backgrounds. Adopts a life cycle perspective by including industrial applications, behavior, and fate and human health risks and removal Focuses on developing regions and covers a wide range of emerging contaminants, including those often overlooked in earlier books such as rare earth elements and antimicrobial resistance Presents a clear understanding of the contrasts between developed and developing countries with respect to emerging contaminants and their health risks and mitigation, including water and wastewater treatment systems commonly used in developing countries as well as how the human and ecological health risks could be higher in developing countries
