Wastewater treatment plant is the facility where the process takes place. There are various processes which are used for treatment of wastewater, such as phase separation, sedimentation, biochemical oxidation, etc. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to water and wastewater treatment. Most of the topics introduced herein cover new techniques and the applications of water and wastewater treatment. This textbook will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field.
