The Polymer Water Nexus

This book aims to guide and illuminate future pathways for utilizing these linkages to ensure the quality of water for drinking and other purposes. It delves into a critical yet underexplored domain: the polymer-water nexus. This nexus is a two-sided story: on one hand, polymers offer immense potential for water treatment and protection; on the other, their misuse can cause significant environmental damage. This book will serve multiple purposes – for education, research, and industrial applications – by providing valuable information in a comprehensive and practical format. The ultimate goal is to establish a sustainable bridge between polymer science and water chemistry, with careful consideration of environmental and climatic factors.
