About the Book Managing biosolids for reuse and not for disposal is the focus of this book. The emphasis is placed on environmental compliance where the goal is the processing of treated biosolids to the production of a waste product (biosolids ash) that has been discarded in the past and to demonstrate that this particular waste byproduct has some value. When biosolids ash is managed for reuse and is not disposed of in the traditional manner, all sides win, including the environment.

The study of nature is a complex science involving many different fields from geology and meteorology to biology, zoology, and botany. This complexity indicates nature s broad scope of impact. It is at once beautiful and dangerous, displaying power beyond human control. An understanding of the basic principles and concepts of the study of nature is therefore both enriching and practical. In The Handbook of Nature, authors Frank R. Spellman and Joni Price-Bayer provide a comprehensive guide to the study of nature in terms the layperson can grasp easily. This accessible reference work is for...

Ponds (lagoons) have been used for centuries with great success in the treatment of wastewater. Ponds created for treatment, known as stabilization ponds, model the physical and biochemical interactions that occur in natural ponds. Easy to build and manage, stabilization ponds can accommodate large fluctuations in flow, and provide results that are comparable to conventional systems at a much lower cost. Wastewater Stabilization Ponds examines the use of this natural and highly effective process. The text is centered on wastewater pond management processes and operation...

This volume in the Fundamentals for the Water and Wastewater Main Operator series covers the basics of piping and valves in water and wastewater plants, including details on fittings, strainers, filters, traps and control systems. The book explains how pipes and valves are used to feed materials (e.g., chemicals) into influents and effluents and siphon off unwanted liquid and gaseous by-product. Also covered is how pipes are developed into systems and subsystems and coordinated into a plant-wide functioning unit.

This book starts by laying out the dozens of specific tasks that waterworks operators must know, both to do their job and to achieve certification. After a review of basic math, the volume explains the fundamentals of how water is pumped, stored, and treated and provides the formulas and calculations for monitoring and controlling water flow in multiple plant operations. The book goes into the practical execution of every unit of operation in water treatment from intake to distribution, including: screening, mixing, coagulation/flocculation, sedimentation, biosolids removal, filtration,...

This volume explains how land treatment works and then delves into the technical improvements that have increased the viability of land treatment in general, including phytoremediation; vadose-zone monitoring; new types of surface irrigation such as center-pivot, drip and micro-sprinklers; and aquifer recharge and land subsidence strategies. In terms of operation, the book offers updated information on soil and aquifer management and provides a rational model for balancing oxygen uptake with BOD loadings. A special feature is that it demonstrates the use of land application to treat...
