Electrocoagulation Based Treatment of Water and Wastewater: Overview and Applications is a concise presentation of different real-life applications on the electrocoagulation treatment process involved in the removal of harmful contaminants from both drinking and industrial wastewater. Chapters focus on the global scenario of water purification, its types, and characteristics, along with different water treatment processes, including the electrocoagulation technique. The book explains both the foundational information and state-of-the-art topics involved in the treatment of water and wastewater using electrocoagulation and its hybrid techniques in an easy-to-understand manner. The experimental studies conducted across the globe, along with their associated challenges and the possible solutions are explored, starting from the basics and gradually progressing towards the advanced level of the subject. In an organized manner, the book addresses both the standalone and hybrid electrocoagulation-based techniques established for water and wastewater treatment in real life applications. Readers will acquire in-depth knowledge on the field of drinking and industrial wastewater treatment from its basics to the current research accomplishments.

Dr. Mihir Kumar Purkait is a Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, Assam, India. His current research activities are focused in four distinct areas viz. i) advanced separation technologies, ii) waste to energy, iii) smart materials for various applications, and iv) process intensification. In each of the area, his goal is to synthesis stimuli responsive materials and to develop a more fundamental understanding of the factors governing the performance of the chemical and biochemical processes. He has more than 20 years of experience in academics and research and published more than 300 papers in different reputed journals (Citation: >16,500, h-index = 75, i-10 index = 193). He has 12 patents and completed 43 sponsored and consultancy projects from various funding agencies. Dr. Pranjal Pratim Das is a Technical Associate at the National Jal Jeevan Mission (NJJM) under the Ministry of Jal Shakti, Govt. of India. He has completed his PhD from the Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, Assam, India. He received his M. Tech and B. Tech in Food Engineering and Technology from Tezpur (Central) University, Assam, India. His research work is purely dedicated to industrial wastewater treatment via electrochemical and advanced oxidation techniques. He has extensively worked on the application of hybrid ozone-electrocoagulation process to treat heavy metals and cyanide-contaminated effluents from different unit operations of steel industry. He has authored several scientific book publications, research/review articles and book chapters in various reputed international journals on water and wastewater treatment. He has fabricated and demonstrated many lab-scale modules for the green energy generation from sewage wastewaters. He has also worked on the treatment of ground and surface waters and has delivered many pilot plant set-ups to several water treatment facilities across the state of Assam (India) for the supply of safe drinking water Dr. Mukesh Sharma is currently a Research Fellow at Department of Chemical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IITG), India. He obtained his M.Sc. and PhD in Earth Science and Technology from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, West Bengal, India. His research work includes membrane technology and its applications in simultaneous sustainable energy extraction, electrochemistry, wastewater treatment, water treatment, bioelectrochemical process, desalination, waste management, resource recovery, fuel cells and formation of value-added products derived from agricultural wastes and processes intensification. He has published many scientific research and review papers in various reputed international journals. He has authored several book chapters in various publications, including Elsevier, CRC and Springer and patented technologies and its demonstrations on the field of blue energy generations.
