Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue on “Emerging Pathogens and Contaminants in Water Supply, Treatment, and Sanitation” will focus on the occurrence, fate, persistence, and removal of contaminants of biological and chemical origin in water sources and during water, wastewater, and sludge treatment processes and after discharge of treatment effluents and residuals to the environment. Emerging pathogens/microorganisms, chemical contaminants, and emerging treatment technologies (physical, chemical, biological) are of particular interest. Treatment and sanitation systems include centralised and decentralised systems for water, wastewater, and sludge treatment.
Prof. Dr. Banu Örmeci
