This book is organized into five parts encompassing 37 chapters. The first part deals first with the practical performance of various systems for small-scale wastewater treatment and the application of dimensioned aerated grit chambers as a highly loaded activated sludge process. This part also considers the incidence of Sphaerotilus natans in laboratory scale activated sludge systems and he direct solid-liquid separation using hollow fiber membrane in an activated sludge aeration tank. The succeeding parts discuss the theoretical and operational benefits of anaerobic and industrial wastewater treatment. These topics are followed by presentation of activated sludge models, with particular emphasis on nitrification and precipitation modeling, as well as dynamic modeling of trace contaminant removal in a municipal sewage treatment plant. The last part explores the characteristics of biological phosphorus and phosphate removal process. This book will prove useful to chemical and environmental engineers and researchers in the related fields.
