Water Quality International '92 Washington DC, 1992

About this book

The Biennial International Conferences of IAWPRC are arguably the most comprehensive meetings in the field of pollution and the water environment. The Sixteenth Biennial was no exception with unrivalled coverage of the critical aspects of water quality worldwide. Over 200 invited and contributed papers and over 160 poster papers from the seven parallel sessions of the main conference are presented in five volumes. Papers from the Chesapeake Bay Experience Symposium are published in the sixth volume. (Papers from the Health-related Water Microbiology seminar are not included as they have been published separately as Water Science and Technology 27 (3/4)). The latest research and results on all aspects of water pollution research and control are contained in this valuable set.
