Water Quality Engineering in Natural Systems focuses on contaminant fate and transport, design of environmental-control systems and regulatory constraints.

Features:

• Details the fundamental equations that describe the fate and transport of contaminantsin the water environment
• Details how to assess how much waste can be safely assimilatedinto a water body by developing a solid understanding of the relationship between the type of pollutant discharged
• Includes the characteristics of the receiving water, and physical, chemical, and biological impacts
