Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of sewage, wastewater, and water purification from a scientific perspective, beginning in the mid-19th century. The author uses his first-hand experience from working on the River Thames and London sewage purification to tell the story of the scientific and political battles that led to the field of water purification as we know it today. The author recounts his experiences working with various methods of purification, including precipitation, filtration, and biological treatment, sharing his findings from the Massachusetts Experimental Filtration Plant and the Sutton Experiments, both of which he was heavily involved in. Throughout the book, the author shows how the field has grown, as scientists unlocked the mysteries of bacteria and their role in purification and discovered the power of biological processes, and readers will get a picture of the current state of the science, complete with implications for the future of water treatment.
