Special Issue on
Water Remediation

CALL FOR PAPERS

Human activities have had detrimental effects on water quality; for that reason, the
water remediation is a topic extensively studied by many research groups around the
world. In this context, the research on the removal of pollutants from ground waters
or industrial effluents by using physical or chemical methods has acquired increased
attention in the last decade. The study of different alternatives for the water source
treatment allows either improving or developing processes to clean water not only
for human consumption but also for guaranteeing a safe discharge of water stuff by
reducing its toxicity to other life species.
The main objective of this special issue is to present and discuss scientific and
technological developments that are expected to contribute to improving the existent
processes for water remediation. High-quality scientific articles, original research
manuscripts, as well as review articles focused on pollutants removal from water are
welcome as contribution for this special issue.
