Recent legislation and more stringent effluent criteria are placing increased emphasis on effective water quality management. The purpose of this book is to present a concise summary of present theory, with emphasis on the application of that theory to both municipal and industrial wastewater treatment problems. It should be useful as a text for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in water pollution control, industrial waste treatment, and water quality management. A series of problems applying the theories as developed in the text are presented where appropriate. For in-depth study of specific topical areas the reader is referred to the cited book references at the end of the text.
