Publisher's Synopsis
This volume, the third part of the selected proceedings of the 17th Biennial Conference of the IAWQ, contains 31 papers from the sessions on Chemical and Petrochemical Waste Management, and Industrial Waste Treatment. Problems associated with treating a wide range of industrial wastes are covered, including the pulp and paper, metal and textile industries. The conference proved to be the world's premier conference for those professionally interested in water pollution research and control and in water quality management. Over 1100 delegates were attracted to Budapest for a high-quality programme covering advanced research and strategic overviews, treatment processes and receiving water impacts, problems of industrial and municipal wastewater, and much more. Together with the remaining parts of the proceedings it constitutes a valuable update on our understanding of the water environment and the technologies that impact upon it.
