The use of models in design, control and optimization of biological wastewater treatment is steadily increasing, and this book is unique in giving a comprehensive treatment of this rapidly growing field. Written by an international group of experts, the book deals with not only models of different processes - activated sludge, tricking filter, rotating biological contactor, waste stabilization pond, nitrification, denitrification, anaerobic digestion, etc. - but also shows different approaches used to find solutions used in different types of waste water. Theoretical approaches as well as practical applications from a number of countries are included, and these are presented in a way which can be clearly comprehended by all engineers. In an easy to understand style the book gives a comprehensive treatment of the state-of-the-art which can be understood by those interested in wastewater treatment and/or modelling.
