Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sewerage and Sewage Disposal a d104book Since the three volumes of "American Sewerage Practice" were published in 1914-1915, the authors have been urged to prepare a single-volume abridgment of them for class use in engineering schools. The authors were reluctant to do this, because of two conditions. The first is the great variation in the time devoted to sewerage engineering in different schools. This has the result that a textbook so brief as to verge on the superficial from the viewpoint of one class may be too detailed for another. The second condition is the fact that some of those features of sewerage engineering which in practice it is most important to master are apparently held by those laying out college courses to deserve little attention from students. For example, a wise estimate of the quantities of sewage and storm water to be handled is the basis of design of a sewerage system, yet the methods of preparing such estimates and actual practice in their use receive relatively little attention in college courses. Furthermore, the best arrangement of the main sewers in a sewerage plan may depend largely upon the treatment, if any, that the sewage must receive before disposal and upon the place of disposal, subjects involving a knowledge of the nature of sewage and the changes which it undergoes under natural conditions or those involved in specific methods of treatment. Yet some college classes in sewerage engineering receive no instruction in sewage treatment. As the requests for a textbook continued, the authors finally decided to prepare a book giving the information which they consider it desirable for the young student to acquire before taking up work in this field. In a sense, they have felt under obligations as professional engineering specialists to do their part in smoothing the way for the first steps taken by engineering students in this branch of engineering. This book can be used in two ways. The text can be read and mastered within the time allotted to the subject even when the course is very short.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Sewerage and Sewage Disposal HE subject of Sewerage and Sewage Disposal is one upon which many books have already been written, but, generally speaking, . They contain a considerable amount of matter which is more or less theoretical, and much information, of methods good and bad, from which the reader is left to draw his own conclusions. The present work is intended to be more in the nature of a practical handbook, giving definite advice, as far as possible, to those who have actually to carry out work, omitting descriptions of unsatisfactory methods, and leaving the theoretical side of the question alone.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sewerage and Sewage Disposal Having had occasion in my own practice to in vestigate the information which of recent years has become available to engineers, through the researches of chemists and biologists, in relation to Water Supply, Sewerage and Sewage Disposal, I have thought that a concise summary of the most important data would be useful. I have confined this book as far as possible within the limits of data in connection with works of Sewerage and Sewage Disposal, although in dealing with River Pollution and Filtration of Impure Water, the allied subjects of Water Pollution and Sewage Purification necessarily overlap. In fact, the functions of micro-organisms, which affect the consideration of both, must be well understood by engineers who have to advise in.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sewage Disposal The limiting factors and conditions in present practice are described at length, with suitable summaries. The third part of this book deals with what have been generally called preparatory arrangements for the treatment of sewage. Screening, settling tanks, septic tanks, chemical precipitation tanks, electrolytic treatment and strainers are discussed in much detail, particularly septicization in two-story tanks. Resumes as to their present standing are given for each device. The fourth part deals with filtration matters with a view to recording present practice. The closing pages of the book are devoted to aeration, sterilization and ozonization processes as they are now understood, with a few explanations as to institutional and residential plants, and a final comparative summary of general costs and efficiencies. If any particular veiwpoint has prevailed in connection with the preparation of this book, it is that of the operator of disposal works. I desire to acknowledge my obligation, for data and aid, to Mr. C. B. Hoover, Mr. E. S. Chase and Mr. R. S. Lanphear, in charge of the operation of the disposal works at Columbus, Ohio; Reading, Pa.; and Plainfield, N. J., respectively. At a time when medical authorities have a tendency to favor complete sewage purification regardless of the need or cost of such a project, it is hoped that the results of practical accomplishments as described in this book may be of aid. The same may be said as to the descriptions of the underlying chemical, biological and physical conditions which should receive attention from the engineer who has to design and build disposal works either for dispersion in large bodies of water or for clarification, filtration or sterilization. Use has been made freely in this book of various professional papers prepared in recent years by me and also professional reports which I have made both individually and as a member of the former firm of Hering Fuller. Lawrence data have also been used freely and suggestions have been received from Mr. H.W. Clark in regard to some of the reports of the Massachusetts State Board of Health since 1894, when there was published a summary of results, prepared by me, of the first seven years of operation of the Lawrence experiment station.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Purification and Sewage Disposal Since the recognition of their significance in the promotion of the public health, methods of water purification and sewage disposal have earned a steadily increasing importance. Consequently, these branches of industry have enjoyed the most zealous atten tion of the scientist and of the engineer. I have endeavoured in the present monograph to give a survey, short perhaps, but as complete as possible, of the present position in regard to Water Purification and Sewage Disposal. Owing to the wide range of this subject particular processes could only be treated shortly in the space at disposal. One chapter, which is very fully treated in the present volume, though slightly elsewhere, is the disposal of industrial sewage. Many of the processes of purification are of quite recent date, and fresh experience is being obtained daily and reported upon in the most diverse publications. I have endeavoured to collect such information. In the translation some small changes and additions have been made in the chapters on sand filtration, the removal of manganese, and Travis and Emscher wells.

Download or read book Sewage Disposal in the United States Classic Reprint written by Geo W. Rafter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sewage Disposal in the United States Questions of River Pollution and Sewage Disposal have assumed so much importance in this country that no excuse is necessary for putting forth an American treatise on the subject. The chief object, therefore, of this book is to specifically call the attention of sanitary authorities, engineers, and others interested in questions of public sanitation, to the fact that we have already accumulated a considerable stock of experience in sewage disposal in this country, and that for the future Americans, who wish to study the subject in detail, will not be obliged, as until recently was the case, to go abroad for the purpose. In making this remark we do not wish to be understood as discouraging the study of foreign precedents in sewage disposal; on the contrary, it is cheerfully conceded, inasmuch as the necessity for sewage purification first arose abroad, that consequently the foreign engineers had the opportunity to attack the problem first, and we may very properly profit by their experience. The full idea is that the conditions here are generally quite dissimilar from those obtaining abroad, and that, with most of the feasible methods of sewage purification now in successful operation, the chances are decidedly in favor of quite as much profit from studying carefully the results obtained here as can be expected from the casual examination of executed projects abroad, which, after all, are for the most part only relatively applicable. The experience at Worcester, Massachusetts, is a striking exemplification of the truth that in the end the American engineer must design works to suit his specific case. In the preliminary discussion at Worcester it was nearly universally assumed that, by reason of an identity of climatic conditions between Worcester and Danzig, the sewage irrigation fields of the latter city might be duplicated at Worcester, and results obtained quite as successful as those attending sewage farming at Danzig. Rut Mr. Allen took the ground that the climatic conditions were sufficiently dissimilar to render an extensive sewage farm at Worcester an experiment, relative to which it was impossible to predicate success from what had occurred at Danzig.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Methods of Sewage Disposal: For Towns, Public Institutions and Isolated Houses In the preparation of this book, it has been attempted to bring into convenient form, and within moderate limits, the more important results of the study and experience of many engineers, chemists, and biologists who have within the past quarter of a century exploited the various methods of sewage disposal. These results are set forth in a voluminous literature, and are clouded with much speculation and conflicting testimony. It would not have been possible, even five years ago, to state with certainty some controlling principles which are now firmly established, and which are supported by the most successful practice of the past. That practice was based on empirical knowledge, and was the outgrowth of tentative effort. Little by little, it has been justified, elucidated, and corrected by scientific investigation, - notably at the hands of Schloessing, Frankland, Warington, and the corps of able men who have conducted the experiments of the Massachusetts Board of Health at Lawrence. These experiments were more complete than any that preceded them, and their outcome has been more practically conclusive: they must be of world-wide good effect.
