In this handbook, we have tried to explain the fundamental concepts of the treatment of water and waste water and are confident that the handbook will meet the expectations of everyone concerned with water and waste water treatment. Learn about wastewater management, treatment technologies, and reuse strategies in India. Explore innovative solutions for addressing sewage, industrial waste, and greywater to promote water sustainability. Wastewater treatment is the process of converting wastewater — water that is no longer needed or is no longer suitable for use — into bilge water that can be discharged back into the environment. Wastewater can emanate from several activities including bathing, washing, using the toilet, and rainwater runoff. Abstract Wastewater treatment has been an area of great interest for many decades due to pollutants that cause harmful effects on the water bodies. However, with rapid industrialization and population growth, water quality of conventionally treated effluents is becoming progressively worse. Water quality analysis of treated water from different wastewater treatment facilities reveals that various inorganic pollutants and organic micropollutants still exist in treated streams. However ...
