Potential applications for CA-CDI technology include the purification of boiler water for fossil and nuclear power plants, volume reduction of liquid radioactive waste, treatment of agricultural wastewater containing pesticides and other toxic compounds, creation of ultrapure water for semiconductor processing, treatment of wastewater from electroplating operations, desalination of seawater, and removal of salt from water for agricultural irrigation. 

The discharged effluent from an agricultural wastewater treatment lagoon enters the Minnesota River with some residual pollutant concentrations. When completely mixed into the river, these pollutants will meet concentration criteria put forward by the state agencies. There is, however, a region before the waste stream approaches a perfectly mixed condition, called a mixing zone, where the state criteria may not...

Aluminosilicate zeolites are recognized as excellent ionic exchangers [98,101,104,134,142-145], Using zeolites, mainly clinoptilolite, chabazite, and phillipsite, different process have been developed for the treatment of municipal wastewater, purification of radioactive wastewater, for the processing of agricultural wastewater with high chemical oxygen demand, animal nourishment, aquaculture, and the removal of heavy metals from wastewater [104],...

Agricultural wastewaters, due to their character and the methods of disposal, are a special group of wastewaters (see Section 3.9.4). 

However, on account of the wide range of industrial and agricultural wastewaters it is impossible to design universal technological lines for these types of wastewaters. 

Zinc oxide (band gap equivalent to 370-nm light) is capable of photooxidizing alkanes to alkanones (Giannotti et al., 1983) and of photodegrading the herbicides molinate (12) and thiobencarb (13) in agricultural wastewaters (Draper and Crosby, 1987 Figure 6.10). The use of ZnO in the latter instance is especially promising since the oxide is used in fertilizers as a source of zinc for crop nutrition. ZnO produced... 

Polymer hydrogels are cross-linked hydrophilic polymer networks that are able to swell considerably in an aqueous medium. The development of hydrogels is a dynamic field of research, and these materials could be used in various applications as agriculture, wastewater treatment, and of course biomedicine and pharmacy (drug delivery systems, wound dressing, soft contact lenses, etc.).
