This book deals in a concise format with the methods used to develop mathematical models for water and wastewater treatment. It provides a systematic approach to mass balances, transport and transformation processes, kinetics, stoichiometry, reactor hydraulics, residence time distribution, heterogeneous systems, and dynamic behaviour of reactors. In addition it includes an introduction into parameter identification, error analysis, error propagation, process control, time series analysis, stochastic modelling and probabilistic design. Written as a textbook, it contains many solved practical applications.

Das bewAhrte Buch liefert eine ausfA1/4hrliche EinfA1/4hrung in das Arbeitsgebiet der Siedlungswasserwirtschaft. Behandelt werden die Wasserbeschaffung und -aufbereitung, Wasserversorgung, Abwasserableitung, Regenwasserkonzepte, Abwasserreinigung und Schlammbehandlung. Dieses umfassende Lehrbuch kann vorlesungsbegleitend in Technischen UniversitAten und Fachhochschulen sowie zum Selbststudium fA1/4r fortgeschrittene Studierende eingesetzt werden. Es vermittelt die grundlegenden Konzepte, Methoden und Modelle, ohne deren VerstAndnis eine vertiefte praxisorientierte TAtigkeit im Bereich des Bau- und Umweltingenieurwesens kaum denkbar ist.
