Applied Environmental Science and Engineering for a Sustainable Future(AESE) series covers a variety of environmental issues and how they could be solved through innovations in science and engineering. Our societies thrive on the advancements in science and technology which pave way for better and better standard of living. The adverse effects of such improvements are the deterioration of the environment. Thus, better catchment management in order to sustainably manage all types of resources (including water, minerals and others) becomes paramount important. Water and wastewater treatment and reuse, solid and hazardous waste management, industrial waste minimisation, soil and agriculture as well as myriad of other topics needs better understanding and application. The book series will aim at fulfilling such a task in coming years.
