Design Principles and Practice
by Mackenzie L. Davis
Water and Wastewater Engineering: Design Principles and Practice provides comprehensive coverage of the design and construction of municipal water and wastewater facilities.
The book addresses:
- water treatment in detail
- following the flow of water through the unit processes and coagulation
- flocculation, softening, sedimentation, filtration, disinfection, and residuals management
Each stage of wastewater treatment--preliminary, secondary, and tertiary--is examined along with residuals management.
Water and Wastewater Engineering contains more than 100 example problems, 500 end-of-chapter problems, and 300 illustrations. Safety issues and operation and maintenance procedures are also discussed in this definitive resource.
