Description

A comprehensive introduction to municipal water supply and waste-water disposal technology designed for environmental engineering and civil engineering courses. Provided in the book is a basic review of the chemistry, biology, hydraulics and hydrology necessary to understand water and waste-water technologies. The book covers, in a traditional fashion, water distribution and processing separately from waste-water collection and treatment. The second edition includes the latest technology, showing how to use lasers to lay sewer pipe and high- purity oxygen to treat sludes. Also presented are new procedures for determining BOD of industrial and land disposal and additional data on operations and maintenance. The book uses English units, showing the translations to metric.
