This book deals with the latest developments regarding urban and industrial wastewaters’ adapted treatment with various technologies. It focuses, through valuable publications, on the shifting of the wastewater management paradigm from “treatment and disposal” to “the 4Rs principle: Reduce, Recycle, Reuse, and Recover”. The adapted wastewater treatment step will allow (i) the disposal of supplementary water amounts that could be safely reused in order to tackle the water-scarcity problem, and (ii) the preservation of the environment against pollution. Finally, this book will contribute to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and other international related initiatives.

Research & information: general --- OMWW --- drying --- water recovery --- water characterization --- sustainable development --- alternating current --- coupling --- hybrid material --- biosorption --- wastewater reuse --- protein adsorption --- neutral solute --- ultrafiltration --- selectivity modelling --- pore size distribution --- raw poultry manure --- pyrolysis --- biochar --- characterization --- leaching --- phosphorus --- potassium --- grey water --- SBR --- fouling --- zeta potential --- norovirus --- water reuse --- water quality --- mineral processing --- wastewater treatment --- flotation --- electrocoagulation (EC) --- chemical oxygen demand (COD) --- polyhydroxyalkanoates --- PHA --- PHBV --- mixed microbial culture --- green extraction --- dimethyl carbonate --- purification --- 1-butanol --- wastewater valorization --- reclaimed water --- circular economy --- anaerobic digestion --- biogas --- reuse --- water pricing --- water depletion --- industrial sector --- lignite --- heavy metals --- adsorption --- batch --- isotherm --- mechanism --- n/a

This Special Issue titled “Soil Erosion and Sustainable Land Management” presents 13 chapters organized into four main parts. The first part deals with assessment of soil erosion that covers historical sediment dating to understand past environmental impacts due to tillage; laboratory simulation to clarify the effect of soil surface microtopography; integrated field observation and the random forest machine learning algorithm to assess watershed-scale soil erosion assessment; and developing the sediment delivery distributed (SEDD) model for sub-watershed erosion risk prioritization. In Part II, the factors controlling soil erosion and vegetation degradation as influenced by topographic positions and climatic regions; long-term land use change; and improper implementation of land management measures are well dealt with. Part III presents different land management technologies that could reduce soil erosion at various spatial scales; improve land productivity of marginal lands with soil microbes; and reclaim degraded farmland using dredged reservoir sediments. The final part relates livelihood diversification to climate vulnerability as well as the coping strategy to the adverse impacts of soil erosion through sustainable land management implementation which opens prospects for policy formulation. The studies cover regions of Africa, Europe, North America and Asia, being dominantly conducted under the framework of international scientific collaborations through employing a range techniques and scales, from the laboratory to watershed scales. We believe those unique features of the book could attract the interest of the wider scientific community worldwide.
