Designed to meet the information needs of professionals without an engineering background, this book describes and explains in simple, non-mathematical terms the unit processes used to treat both drinking water and wastewater. The text presents each unit process, states what function(s) it performs, illustrates what equipment it uses, and explains its role in the process of purifying or cleanin…
The issue of water quality monitoring is becoming a huge area as the EU requirements for cleaner water increase. On-line monitoring involves measuring a body of water constantly and in-situ as opposed to analysing samples in the lab. Currently filling the gap in the market, Wastewater Quality Monitoring: On-line Methods provides information on how to produce the best analyses of wastewater in o…
Over the last few years there has been a growing concern over the increasing concentration of micropollutants originating from a great variety of sources including pharmaceutical, chemical engineering and personal care product industries in rivers, lakes, soil and groundwater. As most of the micropollutants are polar and persistent compounds, they are only partially or not at all removed from w…
Handbook of Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant Operations the first thorough resource manual developed exclusively for water and wastewater plant operators has been updated and expanded. An industry standard now in its third edition, this book addresses management issues and security needs, contains coverage on pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), and includes regulatory change…
This book provides a concise presentation of the fundamental elements of wastewater treatment process design. It shows the reader where various authors and authorities differ in their interpretation of the fundamentals and offers multiple tables of data from which to select appropriate design parameters. This book is intended to be a process design reference book, not a detailed design manual o…
