Publisher's Synopsis
Complete Coverage of the State-of-the-Art in Water Resource Recovery Facility Design
Featuring contributions from hundreds of wastewater engineering experts, this fully updated guide presents the latest in facility planning, configuration, and design. Design of Water Resource Recovery Facilities: WEF Manual of Practice No. 8 and ASCE Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice No. 76, Sixth Edition, covers key technical advances in wastewater treatment, including
Advances with membrane bioreactors applications
Advancements within integrated fixed-film/activated sludge (IFAS) systems and moving-bed biological-reactors systems
Biotrickling filtration for odor control
Increased use of ballasted flocculation
Enhanced nutrient-control systems
Sidestream nutrient removal to reduce the loading on the main nutrient-removal process
Use and application of wireless instrumentation
Use and application of modeling wastewater treatment processes for the basis of design and evaluations of alternatives
Process design and disinfection practices to minimize generation of TTHMs and other organics monitored for potable water quality
Approaches to minimizing biosolids production and advances in biosolids handling, including effective thermal hydrolysis, and improvements in sludge thickening and dewatering technologies
Increasing goals toward energy neutrality and driving net zero
Trend toward resource recovery
