Atmospheric and Biological Environmental Monitoring
The extent of harmful effects of pollution on atmospheric, terrestrial and aquatic environments can be translated into extreme temperature changes, dirty air, clean water shortages, and increased incidence of toxicity that harms every life on earth. Within a lifetime, our environment is changing drastically. Much of the information of environmental pollution impacts needs to be studied, from the mechanism of toxic nanoparticles on the molecular level to the detection of trace gases on the satellite perspective. It is therefore essential to develop advanced monitoring techniques, e- cient process technologies and health impact assessment tools to ?ll the gaps in our scienti?c knowledge. This ...
Water - Energy Interactions in Water Reuse
The focus of Water-Energy Interactions in Water Reuse is to collect original contributions and some relevant publications from recent conference proceedings in order to provide state-of-art information on the use of energy in wastewater treatment and reuse systems. Special focus is given to innovative technologies, such as membrane bioreactors, high pressure membrane filtration systems, and novel water reuse processes. A comparison of energy consumption in water reuse systems and desalination will be also provided. Water-Energy Interactions in Water Reuse covers the use of energy in conventional and advanced wastewater treatment for various water reuse applications, including carbon footprint, energy efficiency, energy self-sufficient facilities and novel technologies, such as microbial fuel cells and biogas valorisation. It is of real value to water utility managers; policy makers for water and wastewater treatment; water resources planners, and researchers and students in environmental engineering and science.

Rejection of Emerging Organic Contaminants by Nanofiltration and Reverse Osmosis Membranes
Pollution of water sources with emerging contaminants (micropollutants) is a fact known worldwide. This book examines the presence of micropollutants (medicines, hormones, pesticides) in surface water and the lack of success in removal by conventional water treatment options, then explores nanofiltraion and reverse osmosis methods as better options. The author reviews quantification of removals by means of multivariate data analysis techniques, providing a better understanding of the separation of micropollutants by membranes. He discusses increases in water reuse practices and the important role water membrane treatment will play in the removal of micropollutants and the importance of understanding the characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of nanofiltration and reverse osmosis.
TECHNEAU
The best papers from the three-day conference on Safe Drinking Water from Source to Tap June 2009 in Maastricht are published in this book covering the themes of challenges of the water sector and adaptive strategies, treatment, distribution, risk assessment and risk management, sensors and monitoring, small scale systems, simulation, alternative water supply & sources, consumer involvement, and future drinking water. Worldwide, the water supply sector is facing tremendous challenges. Every new emerging contaminants and pathogens and aging infrastructures that are vulnerable for deliberate contamination pose a threat to the quality of water supplies. Shortage of good quality and readily trea...
Medizintäter
Wie keine andere Berufsgruppe waren Mediziner in die nationalsozialistische Rassen- und Vernichtungspolitik involviert. So beteiligten sich Ärzte als Kliniker, Wissenschaftler und Gutachter an Zwangssterilisationen, Krankenmorden (NS-"Euthanasie") und Menschenversuchen in den Konzentrationslagern. Ärzte wirkten aktiv und fast ausnahmslos freiwillig mit am Holocaust und am Völkermord an Sinti und Roma. Im Zentrum des Bandes steht die Frage, wie Ärzte und auch Ärztinnen im "Dritten Reich" zu Tätern wurden. Thematisiert wird zudem die bis heute reichende Rezeptionsgeschichte dieser unheilvollen Geschehnisse. Die Autorinnen und Autoren des Bandes verwenden mentalitäts-, kultur- und ideengeschichtliche Ansätze; hinzu kommen sozialpsychologische Deutungsversuche und (gruppen)biografische Analysen.
