Preface
The frequent release of hazardous and toxic chemicals into water bodies as well as repeated anthropogenic and industrial activities is of great alarm because these pollutants contaminate rivers, lakes, and underground aquifers. The traces of contaminants ranging from dyes, pharmaceutical drugs, hormones, and sunscreen to pesticides are being spreading in different types of water bodies. Furthermore, most of these contaminants are recalcitrant compounds and cannot be decomposed by the conventional wastewater treatment methods. Therefore, many treated effluents that are considered “safe” fo
