"A focused design textbook with the right balance of fundamentals and design examples."—Krishna R Pagilla, University of Nevada, Reno, USA"…covers almost all aspects of wastewater treatment, from collection to treatment and reuse, from conventional treatment processes to advanced treatment processes, and from theory and fundamentals to design examples. All chapters and topics are well aligned with the synopsis of the book in serial order. Instructors might have flexibility to choose certain topics selectively to best deliver coherent message in a course."—Hyeok Choi, The University of Texas at Arlington, USA"This book by Qasim and Zhu integrates the fundamental principles related to wastewater treatment plant design and operation with an extensive set of design examples emphasizing the issues that engineering professionals are likely to face in the field. Besides providing a coverage of the main processes and unit operations, the book also presents critically needed information about nutrient and resource recovery, disposal, reuse, instrumentation, retrofitting, and advanced wastewater treatment processes. It is one of the most valuable books for wastewater treatment plant design – equally useful to students, educators, and practicing engineers."—Syed A. Hashsham, Michigan State University, USA"This book provides an excellent overview of critical concepts needed to solve many environmental challenges in the 21st century. It includes solved examples needed to understand critical concepts and contains many topics relevant to addressing water sustainability." —Ramesh Goel, University of Utah, USA ammenfassung This book will present the theory involved in wastewater treatment processes, define the important design parameters involved, and provide typical values of these parameters for ready reference; and also provide numerical applications and step-by-step calculation procedures in solved examples.
