Publisher's Synopsis
The International Water Association's 2nd World Water Congress held in Berlin in October 2001 was, like its predecessor, a resounding and well attended success. At the centre of its programme were over three hundred oral presentations addressing the drinking water, sanitation, stormwater and environmental needs of communities worldwide. From the large number of oral presentations, after full peer review, 60 papers dealing with aspects of wastewater treatment processes and sludge management have been selected for this issue. Topics include: treatment microbiology and particle separation; physicochemical treatment and industrial wastewater; biological nutrient removal (including process control); anaerobic treatment; physical-chemical techniques for nutrient removal from wastewater and membrane processes; process design; small wastewater treatment plants; sludge management, strategies and policies; and sludge treatment processes. With some of the world's leading experts as authors, highlighting the latest research results and their practical applications, these proceedings are an essential compilation of the latest advances relating to the whole wastewater treatment process, from fundamental treatment processes to sludge management practices.
