Description
Wetland Systems to Control Urban Runoff integrates natural and constructed wetlands, and sustainable drainage techniques
into traditional water and wastewater systems used to treat surface runoff and associated diffuse pollution. The first part of the text
introduces the fundamentals of water quality management, and water and wastewater treatment. The remaining focus of the text is on reviewing
treatment technologies, disinfection issues, sludge treatment and disposal options, and current case studies related to constructed wetlands
applied for runoff and diffuse pollution treatment. Professionals and students will be interested in the detailed design, operation,
management, process control and water quality monitoring and applied modeling issues.
Audience:
Professionals, researchers, and upper division undergraduate and graduate level students in the water and environmental engineering, science
and management areas, as well as in the wastewater industry.
