Summary

This book examines the chemicals most commonly encountered in the major media and thoroughly reviews 26 principal biological technologies available for their treatment. Using the author's at-a-glance chart, readers can quickly determine if a method would work in their processes. Biotreatment technologies covered include activated sludge processes, lagoons and ponds, wetlands, anaerobic wastewater treatment and digestion, bioleaching, phytoremediation, land-farming, slurry reactors, and trickling filters.
