Wetlands for Water Pollution Control

About this book

Wetlands for Water Pollution Control is the third edition of the reputable reference guide by Miklas Scholz- formerly known as Wetland Systems to Control Urban Runoff. The book covers broad water and environmental engineering aspects relevant for the drainage and treatment of storm water and wastewater, providing a descriptive overview of complex 'black box' treatment systems and general design issues involved. The fundamental science and engineering principles will be explained to address the student and professional market. Standard and novel design recommendations for predominantly constructed wetlands and related sustainable drainage systems will also be provided to account for the interests of the professional engineers and environmental scientists. Latest research findings in wastewater treatment and runoff control will be discussed to attract academics and senior consultants who should recommend the proposed textbook to final year and postgraduate students, and graduate engineers, respectively.  - Includes twelve new chapters with a broad overview of water and environmental engineering aspects relevant for the drainage and treatment of stormwater and wastewater - Contains case study topics covering wetlands, including natural wetlands and constructed treatment wetlands, sustainable water management, including sustainable drainage systems, and specific applications such as wetlands treating hydrocarbon, greywater, and piggery dye wastewater - Captures the latest findings in wastewater treatment, with chapters focusing on practical applications and field studies
