Download or read book Biological Wastewater Treatment written by Mogens Henze and published by IWA Publishing (International Water Assoc). This book was released on 1881 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For information on the online course in Biological Wastewater Treatment from UNESCO-IHE, visit: http://www.iwapublishing.co.uk/books/biological-wastewater-treatment-online-course-principles-modeling-and-design Over the past twenty years, the knowledge and understanding of wastewater treatment have advanced extensively and moved away from empirically-based approaches to a first principles approach embracing chemistry, microbiology, physical and bioprocess engineering, and mathematics. Many of these advances have matured to the degree that they have been codified into mathematical models for simulation with computers. For a new generation of young scientists and engineers entering the wastewater treatment profession, the quantity, complexity and diversity of these new developments can be overwhelming, particularly in developing countries where access is not readily available to advanced level tertiary education courses in wastewater treatment. Biological Wastewater Treatment addresses this deficiency. It assembles and integrates the postgraduate course material of a dozen or so professors from research groups around the world that have made significant contributions to the advances in wastewater treatment. The book forms part of an internet-based curriculum in biological wastewater treatment which also includes: Summarized lecture handouts of the topics covered in book Filmed lectures by the author professors Tutorial exercises for students self-learning Upon completion of this curriculum the modern approach of modelling and simulation to wastewater treatment plant design and operation, be it activated sludge, biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal, secondary settling tanks or biofilm systems, can be embraced with deeper insight, advanced knowledge and greater confidence.

It surveys the field and brings theory to ground in the case of Palestine. A clear and accessible introduction to the complexities associated with the term "territory". Provides an interdisciplinary survey of the many strands of research in the field. Addresses specific areas including interpretations of territorial structures; the relationship between territoriality and scale; the validity and fluidity of territory; and the practical, social processes associated with territorial re-configurations. Stresses that our understanding of territory is inseparable from our understanding of power. Uses Israel/Palestine as an extended illustrative case study. The author’s strong legal and geographical background gives the work an authoritative perspective.

Download or read book Free University Berlin written by Gabriel Feld and published by Exemplary Projects. This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Berlin Free University is an imagination of what a building might be - a building designed to function as a piece of the city, adapting to the needs of its users while generating opportunities for social interaction. The university offers a window onto the politicized and optimistic discourse of the Sixties and Seventies, but at the same time illuminates contemporary debates around large projects of infrastructure and public space. This extensive study of the building combines texts with a visual survey containing specifically commissioned photographs as well as archive material, plans and construction details.

Download or read book Rise Trading State written by Richard Rosecrance and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 1987-05-31 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What will power look like in the century to come? Imperial Great Britain may have been the model for the nineteenth century, Richard Rosecrance writes, but Hong Kong will be the model for the twenty-first. We are entering the Age of the Virtual State -- when land and its products are no longer the primary source of power, when managing flows is more important than maintaining stockpiles, when service industries are the greatest source of wealth and expertise and creativity are the greatest natural resources.Rosecrance's brilliant new book combines international relations theory with economics and the business model of the virtual corporation to describe how virtual states arise and operate, and how traditional powers will relate to them. In specific detail, he shows why Japan's kereitsu system, which brought it industrial dominance, is doomed; why Hong Kong and Taiwan will influence China more than vice-versa; and why the European Union will command the most international prestige even though the U.S. may produce more wealth.

Download or read book Megaeventos deportivos Perspectivas cient ficas y estudios de caso written by Ramón Llopis Goig and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2012 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considerados como las "supernovas" de esa enorme constelación que hoy en día es el deporte en todas sus múltiples y variadas manifestaciones, los megaeventos deportivos constituyen uno de los fenómenos más característicos de las "economías de signos y espacios" en que se han transformado las sociedades globalizadas de la modernidad tardía. Este libro ofrece una introducción al estudio de los megaeventos deportivos con un enfoque plural y global. Plural por la diversidad de disciplinas científicas y sociales desde las que se aborda su análisis (sociología, economía, política, urbanismo y antropología social). Global, tanto por la variada procedencia de los autores que han participado en su elaboración, como por la diversidad de países en los que se han celebrado los megaeventos analizados, que abarcan los cinco continentes del planeta. Tras un capítulo inicial de carácter introductorio, la obra se divide en dos grandes bloques. El primero, titulado "Perspectivas científicas", incluye cinco capítulos en los que se profundiza en las dimensiones a las que suelen dedicarse los análisis de impacto de los megaeventos deportivos: económica, turística, urbanística, social y comunicativa. El segundo, titulado "Estudios de caso", presenta seis capítulos en los que se analizan diversas ediciones de los cuatro megaeventos más importantes del deporte actual: los Juegos Olímpicos, la Copa del Mundo de fútbol de la FIFA, la Copa del Mundo de Rugby y la America's Cup.
