More DescriptionWater Pollution Research and Development, Part 1 covers the proceedings of the 10th Biennial Conference of the International Association on Water Pollution Research, held in Toronto, Canada on June 23-27, 1980. This conference emphasizes the problems that arise in performing different laboratory and field experiments related to water pollution research. This work is composed of 24 chapters and starts with reviews of flotation behavior of sewage suspensions, the absorption rates of oxygen and nitrogen, and the application of the bubble fractionation to water and wastewater treatment. The subsequent chapters deal with a model for the activated sludge process, its theoretical aspects and operational benefits. These topics are followed by discussions of the basic principles, theoretical aspects, experiments, and field applications of biological denitrification, bioregeneration, and the Bayer tower biology. This text also explores the benefits of bubble formation process, microbiological methods, flocculation, and the use of various coagulants. The remaining chapters provide the development and application of a simple graphical technique for predicting the chemical composition of lime-treated secondary effluent. These chapters also examine the physico-chemical treatment of wastewater. This book will prove useful to chemical and environmental engineers, researchers, and workers in the related fields.
