Download or read book Data Requirements for Integrated Urban Water Management written by Tim Fletcher and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2008-01-07 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated urban water management relies on data allowing us to analyse, understand and predict the behaviour of the individual water cycle components and their interactions. The concomitant monitoring of the complex of urban water system elements makes it possible to grasp the entirety of relations among the various components of the urban water cycle and so develop a holistic approach to solving urban water problems. Data Requirements for Integrated Urban Water Managements - issuing from UNESCO's International Hydrological Programme project on this topic - is geared towards improving integrated urban water management by providing guidance on the collection, validation, storage, assessment and utilization of the relevant data. The first part of this volume describes general principles for developing a monitoring programme in support of sustainable urban water management. The second part examines in detail the monitoring of individual water cycle components. Two case studies in the final part illustrating attempts to deliver an integrated monitoring system help demonstrate the fundamental principles of sustainable urban water management elaborated here.
Download or read book Assessing Infiltration and Exfiltration on the Performance of Urban Sewer Systems written by Bryan Ellis and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2010-02-10 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sewer systems constitute a very significant heritage in European cities. Their structural quality and functional efficiency are key parameters to guarantee the transfer of domestic and industrial wastewater to treatment plants without infiltration nor exfiltration. Infiltration of groundwater is particularly detrimental to treatment plant efficiency, while exfiltration of wastewater can lead to groundwater contamination. The European research project APUSS (Assessing infiltration and exfiltration on the Performance of Urban Sewer Systems) was devoted to sewer infiltration and exfiltration questions. It was structured in three main Work Areas dealing respectively with i) the development of new measurement methods based on tracer experiments and accounting for detailed uncertainty analyses, ii) the implementation of models and software tools to integrate structural and experimental data and to facilitate data display, operational management and decision-making processes and iii) the integration of economic and operational questions by means of cost estimation, economic evaluation, performance indicators and multi-criteria methods applied to investment/rehabilitation strategies. This final report describes the objectives, methods and main results for each Work Area. References to detailed methods, protocols, reports and tools are given in this final report which will be an invaluable source of information for all those concerned with the performance of urban sewer systems.

Topics include: wastewater operational methods and tools; economic optimization and management; industrial wastewater treatment; small wastewater treatment plants; aeration in wastewater treatment; nuisance-free wastewater treatment plants; sewerage management; watershed and water resources management; landfill management of solid wastes; sludge characteristics; and sludge management. With authors who rank among the world's leading experts in these fields, tackling some of the most prominent contemporary problems, these proceedings are an essential compilation of the latest advances in the management of water, wastewater, the associated solid wastes, and the utilities responsible for these tasks.
Download or read book Automation in Water Quality Monitoring written by N. Fleischmann and published by IWA Publishing (International Water Assoc). This book was released on 2003-05-31 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for water quality information is increasingly being met by systems mainly based on automated measurement devices. In order to discuss the state of the art and the future possibilities the AutMoNet 2002 conference was organized to enhance the dialogue between water specialists, plant operators, chemists and instrument suppliers. This interdisciplinary dialogue is essential for the development of solutions for water quality management.The scientific program of AutMoNet 2002 covered a wide range of topics from leading edge sensor technology, wise use of novel technology, data to information transfer, successful end-user applications in municipal water quality management, environmental monitoring, to water system security; the topics were originally presented in 4 sessions: instrumentation, novel sensors and measurement concepts; transforming data into information; on-line analysis in municipal water management; and on-line analysis in environmental monitoring. This issue of Water Science & Technology presents the highlights of the conference: the 4 keynote presentations, and 19 oral presentations selected after peer review. These papers will prove an invaluable resource for researchers into sensor technology, telemetry and chemistry and for plant operators and managers from across the water and wastewater industry.

Book excerpt: Urban Drainage: A Multilingual Glossary has been written by research engineers and scientists with substantial experience in the urban drainage field. It provides definitive descriptions of urban drainage terms in English, French, Japanese and German, giving guidance on their appropriate usage and context. The glossary also contains many diagrams, tables and technical discussions, and is a very practical tool to facilitate international technical communication in the urban drainage field. Containing well over 850 commonly-used terms in urban drainage, all expressed in a user-friendly manner, the book serves as a valuable resource for both practitioner and academic. Topics covered include: urban hydrology/hydraulics sewerage surface water runoff pollution (groundwater and surface) receiving waters ecology ecotoxicology best management practices urban water resource management Urban Drainage: A Multilingual Glossary represents an initiative of the joint IWA/IAHR Committee on Urban Drainage and has arisen out of the long-standing terminological and tautological difficulties of many terms in common usage within international urban drainage practice. It will be of great use and interest to scientists, engineers and ecologists, professionals and students working in urban hydrology/hydraulics, urban water resource management and regulation, urban planning and ecology.
Download or read book Instrumentation Control and Automation VIII written by Gustaf Olsson and published by IWA Publishing (International Water Assoc). This book was released on 2002-05-31 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumentation, control and automation (ICA) in the water industry has come a long way in the three decades since the first IAWPR workshops on the subject and is now a well established and recognised area of technology. This has resulted from a combination of factors: improvements in the capabilities of hardware and software, developments in theoretical understanding and practical applications, and a wider awareness of the power of ICA. These developments continue at pace, and so the heavyweight programme of the 8th conference in this series (the first under the banner of the International Water Association) attracted a large attendance. A central goal of the conference was to link practical operating experience with new research results on sensor technology, instrumentation, control, and automation systems. This is important in both water and wastewater treatment and transport systems, which incorporate increasingly complex measurement systems, information technology, control systems and human interaction. From the extensive programme 60 papers were selected by a thorough review procedure for these selected proceedings. Topics covers include: process control; sensors for wastewater characterization; benchmarking for control strategy development and testing; sensors for monitoring and detection; process monitoring, detection and early warning systems; process and plant-wide control approaches; modeling and simulation; network control and integrated approaches; applied control; and operational support and experiences. They provide a genuinely state-of-the-art compilation in a field of central importance to water and wastewater.
