商品簡介
New edition of a 1983 reference for professionals involved with water quality and treatment. Coverage includes criteria and standards for drinking water quality, and various methods for removal of organics, inorganics, particulate matter, hardness, corrosive substances, and pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and protozoans. Although discussion does not include the design of water treatment plants, it does emphasize how the chemical aspects of water treatment should influence the design of treatment plants (rather than design being shaped only by hyrdraulic considerations). This edition contains a new chapter on aeration and attempts to assess the chemical and physical efficacies of current processes to meet the demands of the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1986, the criteria and standards of which are outlined in detail. Treatment processes of the future are also discussed. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
