CFD Modelling for Wastewater Treatment Processes
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a rapidly emerging field in wastewater treatment, with application to almost all unit processes. To date, it has been primarily used for evaluation of...
Resource Recovery from Water: Principles and Application
Throughout history, the first and foremost role of urban water management has been the protection human health and the local aquatic environment. To this end, the practice of (waste-)water...
Generalised Physicochemical Model No. 1 (PCM1) for Water and Wastewater Treatment
This book describes theory and approach for a comprehensive and applied physicochemical model for wastewater treatment. These are reactions which occur without a biological mediator, and are...
Design Guidelines for Membrane Diffusion and the MABR: A New Paradigm in Gas Transfer for Resource Recovery
The main energy demands at Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs) is associated with the aeration of aerobic processes which alone accounts for over 50% of the total energy used (EPA, 1989)). ...
Quantification and Modelling of Fugitive Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Urban Water Systems
With increased commitment from the international community to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from all sectors in accordance with the Paris Agreement, the water sector has never felt the...
Integrated Wastewater Management for Health and Valorization: A Design Manual for Resource Challenged Cities
Adequate wastewater treatment in low to medium income cities worldwide has largely been a failure despite decades of funding. The still dominant end-of-pipe paradigm of treatment for surface water...
Water Resilience in Practice: Experiences from the frontline
Water Resilience in Practice is co-edited by two experienced water sector professionals and reviews resilience in water supply service delivery. This will be in the form of a series of case...
Integrated Functional Sanitation Value Chain: The role of the sanitation economy
