Book Quantitative Forecasting of Problems in Industrial Water Systems

Download or read book Quantitative Forecasting of Problems in Industrial Water Systems written by A. G. D. Emerson and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2003 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook is a diagnostic tool. It enables chemical engineers, water technologists and others involved with the design and provision of an industrial water system, while it is still at the design stage, to start with the chemical analysis of a water supply and make a quantitative forecast of the likely problems (scale and corrosion). It is thus possible to make provision for an appropriate water treatment programme from the very outset.The inclusion of a large amount of tabulated data allows results to be read off directly without making complex calculations. This is particularly useful for technologists working on site (for example when ?trouble-shooting?).The ability to make quantitative forecasts enables designers to meet accountants on level terms ? by justifying the cost of including a water treatment programme, and by giving a quantitative assessment of the hazards likely to be encountered if the recommended programme is not installed.Methods of water treatment are not discussed in this textbook, since they can change from time to time; the physical chemistry used in quantitative forecasting does not.

Book The Global 2000 Report to the President of the U S

Download or read book The Global 2000 Report to the President of the U S written by Gerald O. Barney and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global 2000 Report to the President of the U.S. presents an interagency report of the 70-year record of Government concern relating to issues in population, resources, and environment. It discusses the interrelatedness of these three factors. It addresses all three topics from a relatively long-term, global perspective and emphasizes interconnections and feedback Some of the topics covered in the book are the projections of the population, climate, technology, and the food and agriculture. The analysis of these projections is covered. The tools used in the analysis are discussed. The text defines the meaning of mesarovic-pestel world model, carrying capacity, stability, diversity, and ecological buffering. A comparison of the resulting projections is presented. A chapter of the volume is devoted to the embassy reports on forestry and agricultural trends. Another section of the book focuses on the Latin American world model. The book will provide useful information to economists, political analysts, students and researchers.

Download or read book Water Demand Management written by David Butler and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2005-12-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A common characteristic of water demand in urban areas worldwide is its inexorable rise over many years; continued growth is projected over coming decades. The chief influencing factors are population growth and migration, together with changes in lifestyle, demographic structure and the possible effects of climate change (the detailed implications of climate change are not yet clear, and anyway will depend on global location, but must at least increase the uncertainty in security of supply). This is compounded by rapid development, creeping urbanization and, in some places, rising standards of living. Meeting this increasing demand from existing resources is self-evidently an uphill struggle, particularly in water stressed/scarce regions in the developed and developing world alike. There are typically two potential responses: either "supply-side" (meeting demand with new resources) or "demand-side" (managing consumptive demand itself to postpone or avoid the need to develop new resources). There is considerable pressure from the general public, regulatory agencies, and some governments to minimise the impacts of new supply projects (e.g. building new reservoirs or inter-regional transfer schemes), implying the emphasis should be shifted towards managing water demand by best utilising the water that is already available. Water Demand Management has been prepared by the academic, government and industry network WATERSAVE. The concept of the book is to assemble a comprehensive picture of demand management topics ranging from technical to social and legal aspects, through expert critical literature reviews. The depth and breadth of coverage is a unique contribution to the field and the book will be an invaluable information source for practitioners and researchers, including water utility engineers/planners, environmental regulators, equipment and service providers, and postgraduates. Contents Water consumption trends and demand forecasting techniques The technology, design and utility of rainwater catchment systems Understanding greywater treatment Water conservation products Water conservation and sewerage systems An introduction to life cycle and rebound effects in water systems Developing a strategy for managing losses in water distribution networks Demand management in developing countries Drivers and barriers for water conservation and reuse in the UK The economics of water demand management Legislation and regulation mandating and influencing the efficient use of water in England and Wales Consumer reactions to water conservation policy instruments Decision support tools for water demand management
