Groundwater is one of the only types of water that does not self-clean, but with Groundwater Treatment Technology, 3rd Edition, you don’t have to worry because all the information needed to understand the treatment process of groundwater is presented to you. This is the perfect guide to help you learn more about the technology, regulations, and different approaches to treating groundwater.
Evan Nyer has created the standard for groundwater treatment manuals with this must-have book. New to this edition is a focus on aboveground treatment technologies as well as updated material and remedial information.
