Combining this material presents a more unified approach to the subjects, and eliminates redundancies that appeared in the third edition. This change also allows more space in the book to be devoted to new technologies and practices.

SI units are now the lead units, reflecting the global approach to wastewater engineering as it is taught in universities and presented in technical journals. Do you want your students to be "fluent" in SI units? The change from US Customary units to SI units reflects the global approach to wastewater engineering as it is taught in universities and presented in technical journals.

This change also addresses the volume of work being done by US consultants overseas, and supports the needs of engineering professionals outside the US for a comprehensive reference source. Data tables have been thoroughly updated, and approximately 40 new data tables have been added.

Many new photos of facilities and equipment are included as well. Information is more organized and accessible than ever before.

Updates provide students with the most recent information. New design examples Several new design examples have been added, reflecting the technological changes in process design that have occurred in the past 10 years.

Would your students benefit from an added emphasis on design using a classic text in the field? Chapters covering the theory and design of biological treatment systems have been expanded significantly. Table of Content: Chapter 1.

In this new edition, the authors have retained the thorough, yet concise, coverage of basic chemical principles from general, physical, equilibrium, organic, biochemistry, colloid, and nuclear chemistry. In addition, the authors have retained their classic two-fold approach of (1) focusing on the aspects of chemistry that are particularly valuable for solving environmental problems, and (2) laying the groundwork for understanding water and wastewater analysis-a fundamental basis of environmental engineering practice and research.

Key Features : Retains the two-fold approach. Will apply general chemistry principles to specialized QA Are you familiar with the two-fold approach utilized in this text? Do you think it will benefit your students? Retain the thorough, yet concise coverage of basic chemical principles from general, physical, equilibrium, organic, bio, colloid and nuclear chemistry.

To lay the groundwork for understanding more advanced concepts in water and waste-water analysis. Do your students have difficulty understanding more advanced concepts in water and waste-water analysis? Would thorough coverage of basic chemical principles help them in their understanding? Revised and additional new problems.

Provide instructors with a new set of problems to test student understanding Do you agree that it is important to use new and current problems whenever possible? Thoroughly updated all content to coincide with current environmental engineering practice. Do you agree that currency of the subject matter & legislation is important in this course? Arm students with latest information in this area.
