Design of Wastewater Treatment Systems to Satisfy Effluent Quality Requirements Based on Intended Use.

摘要

The study approaches wastewater treatment from the rather broad perspective of water reclamation and reuse. In this context the function of a wastewater treatment system is to produce an effluent of a quality consistent with the intended use of the reclaimed water. The study consists of: (1) a literature review to determine the water quality requirements for each actual and potential use of reclaimed water; (2) a reevaluation of existing wastewater treatment processes and systems to develop rational design approaches;and, (3) laboratory scale evaluation of new processes and unexplored aspects of existing processes.
