Calling for ecologically and economically sound wastewater
treatment systems, the authors of Natural Wastewater Treatment
Systems explore the use of wetlands, sprinkler or deep irrigation,
groundwater recharge, and other natural systems as sustainable
methods for the treatment and management of wastewater. Based on
work by prominent experts in natural waste treatment, this text
provides a thorough explanation on how soil and plants can
successfully sustain microbial populations in the treatment of
wastewater. Determining that natural systems cost less to construct
and operate, and require less energy than mechanical treatment
alternatives, this book also explains how these processes produce
lower amounts of residual solids, and use little or no chemicals.
What's New in the Second Edition: This revised edition includes
current design and regulatory and operational developments in the
natural wastewater treatment field. It provides detailed examples
and analyses along with significant operational data in each
chapter. It also considers how processes provide passive treatment
with a minimum of mechanical elements, and describes new approaches
to partially mixed ponds, including dual-powered aeration ponds.
Introduces the planning procedures and treatment mechanisms
responsible for treatment in ponds, wetlands, land application, and
soil absorption systems Provides new case studies of constructed
wetlands and water reuse systems Presents design criteria and
methods of pond treatment and pond effluent upgrading Describes
constructed wetlands design procedures, process applications,
treatment performance data, and land treatment concepts and design
equations Includes information on constituents of emerging concern
(CEC) and their fate in natural systems The text discusses
wastewater pond systems, free water surface constructed wetlands,
subsurface and vertical flow constructed wetlands, land treatment,
sludge management, and onsite wastewater systems. It describes
residuals and biosolids management, including nitrogen removal
pretreatment methods, and uses U.S. customary and metric units in
all chapters. It presents case studies of new applications of
natural systems and includes worked examples of design equations
for ponds and land treatment. It also provides a biosolids
regulatory update from a top EPA scientist, and algae reduction
technologies for ponds and wetlands. Designed for practicing
wastewater engineers and scientists involved in the planning,
design, and operation of ponds, wetlands, land treatment,
biosolids, and onsite soil-based treatment systems, the book
integrates many natural treatment systems into one single source.
