Description
A-Z guide to soil/plant/microbe-based wastewatertreatmentEngineers and planners eager to benefit from the costefficiencies and convenience of land treatment of waste will find practical guidelines in this comprehensive manual. It covers soil hydraulics, vegetation selection, site selection, field investigations, preapplication treatment and storage, and transmission and distribution of wastewater. You're introduced to:Design procedures and appropriate uses for each of the three land treatment processes: soils, plants, and microbiological agentsSpecial attributes of food processing wastewater, with 6 case studiesThe use of biosolids produced by mechanical treatment systems as crop nutrientsOptions for preapplication treatment, including ponds and constructed wetlandsMuch more
