Water that contains substantial amounts of inorganic and organic pollutants can have severe environmental and health consequences when consumed. Contamination of Water: Health Risk Assessment and Treatment Strategies explores the intricate relationship between various pollutants, their sources, the impact on aquatic ecosystems and human health, and potential mitigation strategies. This comprehensive book is divided into three sections. The first section delves into the sources of potential contamination, encompassing the current scenario of heavy metal and pesticide contamination in water, as well as the regions affected by industrialization, mining, or urbanization. The second section examines the health risks associated with toxic elements, radiological contaminants, microplastics and nanoparticles, as well as pharmaceutical and personal care products, which contaminate water sources. The final section explores efficient and cost-effective treatment technologies and remediation strategies that aim to remove toxic pollutants from water.

Contamination of Water offers a wealth of theoretical and practical knowledge that is valuable to researchers, professors, graduate students, and professionals engaged in the fields of water contamination, environmental and health impacts, and water resource management and treatment. By examining the sources, effects, and mitigation strategies of water contamination, this book contributes to the understanding of the critical challenges facing our water resources and provides valuable insights for developing effective solutions.
