Deemed the "godfather" of industrial wastewater treatment by many of his colleagues, former students and peers, W. Wesley Eckenfelder has played a significant role in the development of wastewater treatment. Through research, numerous educational and technical publications plus multiple courses and seminars, his name became well -known to those who are in his field. Wes' sense of humor has enlightened many a presentation. It has been noted that he has a way of presenting highly technical information that can easily be understood. He encouraged his students to expand their research capacity by "thinking outside the box", and never hesitated to share his knowledge with others in his field. This book covers Wes' experiences in his professional career, starting with his college education and continuing until the present day. A true story that will keep you laughing.
"The Fourth Edition of Industrial Water Quality provides the technical methods, latest information, and current regulations necessary to conceive, design, and operate industrial pollution control facilities - either as an upgrade or as newly developed industrial complex. Advanced technologies are included as well as updated approaches to control, troubleshoot, and solve the complex issues of managing industrial wastewaters and residuals."--BOOK JACKET.
In the past, industrial wastewater treatment primarily focused on the removal of BOD and suspended solids. In recent years, however, the focus has changed to aquatic toxicity, priority pollutants, and volatile organics. This required changes in how we design and operate biological treatment plants. Many existing plants must be retrofitted. New approaches to meet new requirements are discussed in detail. The authors, with a combined experience of sixty years, have presented case studies for a wide variety of industrial wastewaters including pulp and paper, food processing, chemical and pharmaceuticals, and textile wastewaters. Data interpretation and process design are developed through the use of seventeen examples. Procedures for the laboratory and pilot plant generation of process design data are presented. Emphasis is placed on meeting the many new regulations governing industrial wastewater discharges.

This book presents the basic principles for evaluating water quality and treatment plant performance in a clear, innovative and didactic way, using a combined approach that involves the interpretation of monitoring data associated with (i) the basic processes that take place in water bodies and in water and wastewater treatment plants and (ii) data management and statistical calculations to allow a deep interpretation of the data. This book is problem-oriented and works from practice to theory, covering most of the information you will need, such as (a) obtaining flow data and working with the concept of loading, (b) organizing sampling programmes and measurements, (c) connecting laboratory ...

Carefully designed to balance coverage of theoretical and practical principles, Fundamentals of Water Treatment Unit Processes delineates the principles that support practice, using the unit processes approach as the organizing concept. The author covers principles common to any kind of water treatment, for example, drinking water, municipal wastew
