OSTI ID:5212659
The detailed descriptive information presented is based on recent U.S. patents relating to industrial water purification. This book serves a double purpose in that it supplies detailed technical information and can be used as a guide to the U.S. patent literature in this field. An advanced, technically oriented review of modern methods of purifying polluted industrial water is presented. Many of these patents are being utilized commercially. Whether used or not, they offer opportunities for technological transfer. Also, this book describes the number of technical possibilities available, which may open up profitable areas of research and development, and provides a sound background which should be established before launching into research in this field. Equipment and methods for processing waste water from the metal, paper, coal, petroleum refining and chemical industries are described. The Table of Contents is organized in such a way as to serve as a subject index. Other indexes by company, inventor and patent number help in providing easy access to the information. (LCL)
