A new textbook on sustainable development for water resources, this book is written by and for professionals working with limited resources or in the developing world, and for students in civil engineering, appropriate technology, sustainability, and water management. The editors point out that large dams and other heroic engineering projects have often proved unfeasible or unwise, and core concepts of water engineering still present in many texts were developed forty years ago when water quality and availability was quite different and most people had quite different ways of life. This book offers a package of theory and practice about sustainable and unsustainable water use, chosen from many parts of the world. Unliks committed to sustainability which focus on theory, this textbook is designed to commit to sustainability and look at its specific practical application in real-life settings. Photo examples are offered. Chapters deal with the water crisis, requirements for sustainable water systems, water quality issues, fundamentals of treatment, process design, and sustainability, industrial water use and wastewater treatment, sustainable effluent disposal, sustainable construction practices for water structures, and safety issues for operators, consumers, other people, and animals.
