About the Book Water Treatment Plant Design

Design of water treatment plants is evolving. New technologies and unit processes continue

to emerge and have become much more common since the publication of the third edition

of Water Treatment Plant Design 7 years ago. Security issues, summarized in a new

chapter in this fourth edition, have forever redirected many aspects of design. Additional

reference materials for security design considerations are becoming available and should

be consulted for further information.

Equipment design continues to broaden, yet sources of manufactured products have

become more consolidated in the past 7 years. This new edition contains numerous revisions

of illustrations and photography; however, not all new technologies or equipment

offerings are represented. The American Water Works Association (AWWA) and the

American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) are interested in obtaining input from readers

on how to facilitate the future exchange of information on equipment. Alternatives

such as Web-based links are being considered to better provide needed product information

to the design community.

Updates to this fourth edition provide significant new information on many important

topics. Authors from engineering firms and water utilities throughout North America have

revised the chapters and written the two new chapters on UV technologies and security.

Providing support to the chapter authors was a significant base of volunteer reviewers.

Due to the ability of the authors to distribute drafts of their chapters electronically to large

numbers of prospective reviewers, it became apparent that the attempt to accurately name

all reviewers would result in inadvertent omissions. Therefore a general acknowledgment

and thanks to all reviewers is hereby offered.
