Water Quality International '94, Part 4: Design and Operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants - Instrumentation, Control & Automation

About this book

This volume, the fourth part of the selected proceedings of the 17th Biennial Conference of the IAWQ, contains papers from the sessions on Design and Operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants, and Instrumentation, Control and Automation. Large and small treatment plants, their constituent processes, and measurement and control technologies are all covered by general design assessments, case studies, specific experimental work, and modelling and simulation. The conference proved to be the world's premier conference for those professionally interested in water pollution research and control and in water quality management. Over 1100 delegates were attracted to Budapest for a high-quality programme covering advanced research and strategic overviews, treatment processes and receiving water impacts, problems of industrial and municipal wastewater, and much more. Together with the remaining parts of the proceedings it constitutes valuable update on our understanding of the water environment and the technologies that impact upon it.
