Presenting an in-depth coverage, this textbook brings together and integrates key topics including water resources, wastewater, air, and solid waste in a single volume. The textbook introduces a unique approach that emphases on the water and wastewater treatments with its distribution system and engineering. It begins by discussing the public health and sanitation, then covers the wastewater collection system and design, wastewater characteristics, natural purification water, different wastewater treatments, industrial and rural wastewater. Finally, the emerging technologies in the reuse/recycle of waste and processes to conserve the environmental resources are discussed. The text will be useful for senior undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of civil and environmental engineering. Pedagogical features including solved problems, exercises and multiple-choice questions are interspersed throughout the book for better understanding. Discusses latest technologies and engineering design in water and wastewater management. Focusses on reuse and conservation of natural resources. Comprehensively covers topics on air pollution and noise pollution. Explains important topics including coagulation and flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, disinfection, water softening and water distribution. Includes pedagogical features including solved examples, exercises and multiple-choice questions with answers for better understanding of concepts.

This volume presents select proceedings of the International Conference on Innovative Technologies for Clean and Sustainable Development (ICITCSD - 2021), held at the National Institute of Technical Teachers Training & Research and Chitkara University, Himachal Pradesh, India. It covers several important aspects of sustainable civil engineering practices, dealing with effective waste and material management, natural resources, industrial products, energy, food, transportation and shelter, environmental impact mitigation, waste minimization and management, sustainable infrastructure, and geospatial technology for sustainable and clean environment. Emphasis is placed on conserving and protecting the environment and the natural resource base essential for future development. The book includes case studies and ongoing research work from various fields related to civil engineering presented by academicians, scientists, and researchers. The book also discusses engineering solutions to sustainable development and green design issues. Special emphasis is given on qualitative guidelines for the generation, treatment, handling, transport, disposal, and recycling of wastes. The book is intended as a practice-oriented reference guide for researchers and practitioners. It will be useful for anyone working in sustainable civil engineering and related fields.

This reference text establishes linkages between the user industries and the providers of clean technologies and sustainable materials for a rapid transformation of the small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The text covers several aspects of sustainable applications including clean technologies, climate change and its effects, sustainable buildings (smart cities), sustainability in road construction, sustainable use of geosynthetic, innovative materials, and sustainable construction practices. The text will be useful for senior undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers in the fields of civil engineering and other infrastructure-related professionals and planners. The book: Discusses clean technologies and sustainable materials in depth Covers concepts of sustainability in road construction, and water retaining structures Examines environmental policies and practices Discusses climate change and its effects in a comprehensive manner Covers sustainable buildings including smart cities As this book discusses concepts related to sustainable civil engineering practices in a single volume, it will be an ideal reference text for everyone aiming at developments of sustainable infrastructures.
