Preface
The book Electrokinetics Across Disciplines and Continents—New Strategies for Sustainable Development aims to discuss and deepen the knowledge about electrokinetic (EK) process. The EK process could be used as an integrated approach for new strategies aiming at sustainable development and for supporting waste strategies worldwide. The conciliation of the EK process in the recovery of secondary resources, remediation, and conservation is a multidisciplinary, novel approach that opens new technical possibilities for waste minimization, through the upgradation of particulate waste products and recovery of secondary resources for industrial, agricultural, or social use. The EK process can also be coupled with phytoremediation and integrated with nanotechnology, enlarging the sc
