Sustainable and eco-friendly approach for controlling industrial wastewater quality imparting succour in water-energy nexus system

Water pollution has become the biggest threat for the present as well as the next generation of flora and fauna. The increase in number of industries for nation's technological developments are also the producer of tons of wastewater with toxic elements posing high risk to the lives of living e...
