A newcomer to the scene, aerobic granulation is on its way to becoming the hot new technology for high-efficiency wastewater treatment. Thus far, intensive research has been conducted with regard to the understanding of the mechanism of aerobic granulation in sequencing batch reactors (SBR) and its application in treating a wide variety of municipal and industrial wastewater. This basic research has promoted the technology from laboratory-study all the way to the present pilot- and full-scale application. The time is right for a reference that discusses the technology and its application in...

A comprehensive guide to sludge management, reuse, and disposal
When wastewater is treated, reducing organic material to carbon dioxide, water, and bacterial cells--the cells are disposed of, producing a semisolid and nutrient-rich byproduct called sludge. The expansion in global population and industrial activity has turned the production of excess sludge into an international environmental challenge, with the ultimate disposal of excess sludge now one of the most expensive problems faced by wastewater facilities.
Written by two leading environmental engineers,...

With the rapid growth of third-party logistics (3PL) in the global logistics industry, it is possible that certain activities and processes relating to logistics may be competitively advantageous as well as good candidates for outsourcing. It is important to gain further insight into customers intention of third-party logistics services (3PLS) and third-party logistics information systems (3PLIS). However, a very little academic literature exists on how to best utilize this new and budding arena for Chinese logistics service industry. This book, therefore, provides a new metric of success for...
