Advances in Wastewater Treatment presents a compendium of the key topics surrounding wastewater treatment, assembled by looking at the future technologies, and provides future perspectives in wastewater treatment and modelling. It covers the fundamentals and innovative wastewater treatment processes (such as membrane bioreactors and granular process). Furthermore, it focuses attention on mathematical modelling aspects in the field of wastewater treatments by highlighting the key role of models in process design, operation and control.
Other topics include:
• Anaerobic digestion
• Biological nutrient removal
• Instrumentation, control and automation
• Computational fluid dynamics in wastewater
• IFAS systems
• New frontiers in wastewater treatment
• Greenhouse gas emissions from wastewater treatment
Each topic is addressed by discussing past, present and future trends. Advances in Wastewater Treatment is a valid support for researchers, practitioners and also students to have a frame of the frontiers in wastewater treatment and modelling.

Fundamentals of Wastewater Treatment and Engineering
Development of Molecular Methods for Detection of Infectious Viruses in Treated Wastewater
Enteroviruses, hepatitis A virus (HAV) and other enteric viruses can survive wastewater treatment processes, even after chlorination, and are found in the final effluents.
These viruses...
Optimizing Filtration and Disinfection Systems with a Risk-Based Approach
Treated wastewater effluents contain high concentrations of particles; many of these particles are large (with diameters greater than 100 μm) and consist of densely-packed bacterial cells. ...
Identifying and Communicating the Benefits and Risks of Disinfecting Wet Weather Flows
The primary objective of this project was to identify and communicate the benefits and risks of disinfecting wet weather flows by evaluating available disinfection technologies and identifying...
