Description - Practical Wastewater Treatment by David L. Russell
Practical techniques for handling industrial waste and designing
treatment facilities
Practical Wastewater Treatment is designed as a teaching and
training tool for chemical, civil, and environmental engineers.
Based on an AIChE training course, developed and taught by the
author, this manual equips readers with the skills and knowledge
needed to design a wastewater treatment plant and handle various
types of industrial wastes. With its emphasis on design issues and
practical considerations, the manual enables readers to master
treatment techniques for managing a wide range of industrial
wastes, including oil, blood and protein, milk, plating, refinery,
and phenolic and chemical plant wastes.
A key topic presented in the manual is biological modeling for
designing wastewater treatment plants. The author demonstrates how
these models lead to both more efficient and more economical
plants.
As a practical training tool, this manual contains a number of
features to assist readers in tackling complex, real-world
problems, including:
* Examples and worked problems throughout the manual demonstrate
how various treatment plants and treatment techniques work
* Figures and diagrams help readers visualize and understand
complex design issues
* References as well as links to online resources serve as a
gateway to additional information
* Practical design hints, stemming from the author's extensive
experience, help readers save time and avoid unwanted and expensive
pitfalls
* Clear and logically organized presentation has been developed and
refined based on an AIChE course taught by the author in the United
States, Mexico, and Venezuela
Whether a novice or experienced practitioner, any engineer who
deals with the treatment of industrial waste will find a myriad of
practical advice and useful techniques that they can immediately
apply to solve problems in wastewater treatment.
