As global populations surge, the availability of clean water continues to decline, necessitating a paradigm shift toward pollution mitigation and sustainable water management. The indiscriminate disposal of untreated wastewater is no longer a viable option, underscoring the critical need for advanced treatment technologies. Wastewater Treatment Technology provides a comprehensive introduction to the core principles of wastewater treatment, coupled with the engineering design of unit processes essential for the sustainable management of municipal wastewater. The book systematically explores key aspects, including wastewater treatment methodologies, drinking water purification, water quality standards, sludge management, and treatment plant design. Each concept is presented with a strong theoretical foundation, ensuring clarity and coherence in technical applications. Additionally, the text integrates recent advancements in wastewater treatment technologies, reflecting the evolving landscape of the field.
Developed from a course taught by the authors over several years, this book is tailored for undergraduate and postgraduate students with a background in environmental science, water resource management, and environmental engineering. It offers a robust grounding in fundamental principles while equipping readers with the expertise to design and optimize unit processes in municipal wastewater treatment systems. Industry professionals will also find it an invaluable reference for practical applications. Beyond academia, this book serves as a crucial resource for researchers and policymakers engaged in wastewater management. It provides scientific methodologies and analytical frameworks necessary for developing viable and sustainable strategies aligned with global environmental goals. Addressing a critical gap in wastewater treatment literature, this text offers a well-structured and comprehensive compilation essential for students, researchers, and decision-makers striving to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through innovative and efficient wastewater solutions.
