Xenobiotics in the Urban Water Cycle Mass Flows, Environmental Processes, Mitigation and Treatment Strategies /

The presence of xenobiotics in the aquatic environment is seen as one of the biggest challenges for a sustainable water future. Thus, there is a need to understand, in an integrated manner, the sources, flow paths, fate and effects of xenobiotics in the urban water cycle. This book is an authoritati...
