Description
For courses in Sanitary or Environmental Engineering/Technology, Water Supply, Sanitation and Water Quality Control in Civil Engineering Departments.
 
A proven text in the field of water and wastewater engineering and technology, this primer provides the fundamental principles and management practices in water processing, water distribution, wastewater collection, wastewater treatment, sludge processing, and water reuse. All major systems and operations are covered concisely yet comprehensively. Introductory chapters provide a review of pertinent aspects of chemistry, biology, hydraulics and hydrology, and water quality.
 
This SI version has the same content, as Hammer & Hammer Water and Wastewater Technology 5e US edition, however, all examples, exercises and solutions have been adapted into SI units, wherever US customary units were used.
