A heavy backlog of gaseous, liquid, and solid pollution has resulted from a lack of development in pollution control. Because of this, a need for a collection of original research in water and wastewater treatment, industrial waste management, and soil and ground water pollution exists. Advanced Treatment Techniques for Industrial Wastewater is an innovative collection of research that covers the different aspects of environmental engineering in water and wastewater treatment processes as well as the different techniques and systems for pollution management. Highlighting a range of topics such as agriculture pollution, hazardous waste management, and sewage farming, this book is an important reference for environmental engineers, waste authorities, solid waste management companies, landfill operators, legislators, environmentalists, and academicians seeking research on waste management.

The supply of safe drinking water is a major worldwide problem. In the developed world the frequency of water related problems are increasing. The purpose of this study was to develop a water treatment unit, that could be used to treat water abstracted from domestic wells.The main focus of this work was on the removal dissolved iron by simple aeration and filtration followed by chemical free disinfection. The principle application for this unit is mainly for single house operation under the following parameters. That the treatment is carried out without the use of chemicals, it is simple to maintain, can be constructed from readily available components, inexpensive to build and operate. While the design of this unit concentrates on single dwelling application, it is possible that it could be expanded to treat the groundwater supply for small groups of dwellings.
