This book will present the theory involved in wastewater treatment processes, define the important design parameters involved, and provide typical values of these parameters for ready reference; and also provide numerical applications and step-by-step calculation procedures in solved examples. These examples and solutions will help enhance the readers' comprehension and deeper understanding of the basic concepts, and can be applied by plant designers to design various components of the treatment facilities. It will also examine the actual calculation steps in numerical examples, focusing on practical application of theory and principles into process and water treatment facility design.
Sanitary landfills are the most widely utilized method of solid waste disposal around the world. With increased use and public awareness of this method of disposal, there is much concern with respect to the pollution potential of the landfill leachate. Depending on the composition and extent of decomposition of the refuse and hydrological factors, the leachate may become highly contaminated. As leachate migrates away from a landfill, it may cause serious pollution to the groundwater aquifer as well as adjacent surface waters. There is growing concern about surface and groundwater pollution from leachate. Better understanding and prediction of leachate generation, containment, and treatment are needed. This book contains a literature review of various methodologies that have been developed for prediction, generation, characterization, containment, control, and treatment of leachate from sanitary landfills. The contents of this book are divided into nine chapters. Each chapter contains theory and definition of the important design parameters, literature review, example calculations, and references. Chapter 1 is devoted to basic facts of solid waste problems current status and future trends towards waste reduction and recycling. Chapter 2 provides a general overview of municipal solid waste generation, collection, transport, resource recovery and reuse, and disposal options. The current status of sanitary landfill design and operation, problems associated with the landfilling, and future trends are presented in Chapter 3. Methods of enhanced stabilization, recycling landfill space, methane recovery, and above grade landfilling, and closure and post closure care of completed landfills are also discussed in detail. Chapter 4 provides a general overview of Subtitle D regulations and its impact upon sanitary landfilling practices. Chapter 5 is devoted entirely to moisture routing and leachate generation mechanisms.
FROM THE PREFACE
"This book integrates the fundamental principles related to wastewater treatment plant design and operation with an extensive set of design examples emphasizing the issues that engineering professionals are likely to face in the field. It is one of the most valuable books for wastewater treatment plant design-equally useful to students, educators, and practicing engineers." -Syed A. Hashsham, Michigan State University, USA "This book provides an excellent overview of critical concepts needed to solve many environmental challenges in the twenty-first century. It includes solved examples needed to understand critical concepts and contains many topics relevant to addressing water sustainability." -Ramesh Goel, University of Utah, USA Wastewater Treatment and Reuse: Theory and Design Examples presents a state-of-the-art, integrated approach to all aspects of wastewater treatment and reuse. It covers a wide-range of topics from public health protection and regulatory requirements to coverage of facility planning, design, and implementation. A unique feature of the book is a collection of over 700 illustrative theory and design examples and in-depth solutions that provide readers deep understanding of current and advanced technologies in wastewater treatment and reuse. The book serves as a consolidated resource on emerging treatment technologies, new research developments, and future trends suitable for sustainable economic growth. It addresses the needs of students, educators, consultants, researchers, and other professionals who are involved in planning, design, review, permitting, and enforcement of wastewater treatment and reuse facilities. Features: Includes an exceptional collection of step-by-step procedures to apply and design various components of wastewater treatment facilities Provides a cross-section of simple-to-advanced numerical examples and solutions that enhance the readers' comprehension and deeper understanding of the basic concepts Serves as an excellent learning tool to master the problem-solving techniques needed for professional engineering (PE) exams An invaluable, hands-on resource for both beginning and experienced professionals for use throughout their careers
