About A Handbook of Effluent Treatment Plants Book
There is a tremendous intrinsic linkage between economic growth and environmental protection. With increasing awareness, statutory compulsion and for public concern the industries have setup the Effluent Treatment Plants to treat the effluent. b v cn t ho ugh, hav ing an adequate effluent treatment plant the industries are lacking in efficient operation and maintenance of eff1uent treatment plant due to lack of system understanding.
This book fulfills a long felt need of a simple, low cost manna! on understanding and running the effluent treatment plants. The book describes the various processes of waste water treatment in detail, starting from screen chambers to ad v a n c e d wa s t e w a t cr treatment systems operation and maintenance of electrical and mechanical equipments, HIP workshop facilities, start up procedures, commissioning of HTP. ETP chemicals, setting up an E.T.P laboratory, waste watersampling and analysis, record keeping, housekeeping, selecting and training FTP personnel, safety aspects in E T P s, cost effectivcness, green belt development and general environmental management have been described in detail.
The books also provides all standards and list of suppliers for all requirements related to an E. T. P.
No ETP in India can perhaps do without this book.
