Book Description

The Volume As Well As Strength Of Waste Water Generated From Different Sectors Has Increased Due To Rapid Industrialisation, Urbanisation And Population Growth. Ensuring The Basic Standard And Quality Of The Receiving Waters Has Therefore Become Extremely Crucial. Land Treatment Of Waste Water Provides An Economically Viable And Technically Feasible Method Of Achieving This.This Book Presents A Systematic Exposition Of The Various Aspects Of Land Treatment To Fulfil The Needs Of Professional Environmental Engineers.The Different Techniques Of Applying Waste Water And Mechanism For Removal Of Bod, Nitrogen, Phosphorous, Micro-Organisms And Other Pollutants Have Been Discussed. The Design Principles For Slow Rate (Sr), Rapid Infiltration (Ri) And Overland Flow (Of) Systems Have Been Explained With Suitable Illustrations. The Possible Hazards Associated With Land Treatment And Effects Of Long Term Application Of Wastes On Soil Matrix Have Been Highlighted. Irrigability Index Has Been Developed To Assess The Quality Of Waste Water And Soil System Numerically, As Well As The Treatment Site By 5 X 5 Soil Sewage Interaction Matrix.Both Practising Environmental Engineers And Civil Engineering Students Would Find This Book To Be An Excellent Reference Source.

Book Description

In these books, we bring together and correlate recent information known to have a prominent influence on the rate of movement of pollutants from wastes and their leachates in the soil. The emphasis is on those characteristics most amenable to modification and their management, such that secure and rational choices of disposal can be made. Identification of limits of the state of the art are carefully defined. This book presents five distinct but related subject matter sections. The first topic relates to soil as a natural system to prepare the reader with a basic knowledge of soil properties as they must become involved in waste management at the disposal facility. The soil, its depth-profile, and certain characteristics are identified and described.
