Page 13 - Water and Wastewater Engineering Design Principles and Practice

x PREFACE

There is a student edition of this book under the same title. It does not contain chapters on the
following subjects: (1) intake structures, (2) wells, (3) chemical handling and feeding, (4) removal
of specific contaminants, (5) water plant process selection and integration, (6) storage and dis-
tribution systems, (7) sanitary sewer design, and (8) clean water plant process selection and
integration.
I appreciate any comments, suggestions, corrections, and contributions for future editions.
