the definitive guide to the theory and practice of water
treatment engineering
This newly revised edition of the classic reference provides
complete, up-to-date coverage of both theory and practice of water
treatment system design. The Third Edition brings the field up to
date, addressing new regulatory requirements, ongoing environmental
concerns, and the emergence of pharmacological agents and other new
chemical constituents in water.
Written by some of the foremost experts in the field of public
water supply, Water Treatment, Third Edition maintains the book's
broad scope and reach, while reorganizing the material for even
greater clarity and readability. Topics span from the fundamentals
of water chemistry and microbiology to the latest methods for
detecting constituents in water, leading-edge technologies for
implementing water treatment processes, and the increasingly
important topic of managing residuals from water treatment plants.
Along with hundreds of illustrations, photographs, and extensive
tables listing chemical properties and design data, this
volume:
Introduces a number of new topics such as advanced oxidation and
enhanced coagulation
Discusses treatment strategies for removing pharmaceuticals and
personal care products
Examines advanced treatment technologies such as membrane
filtration, reverse osmosis, and ozone addition
Details reverse osmosis applications for brackish groundwater,
wastewater, and other water sources
Provides new case studies demonstrating the synthesis of
full-scale treatment trains
A must-have resource for engineers designing or operating water
treatment plants, Water Treatment, Third Edition is also useful for
students of civil, environmental, and water resources
engineering.
