Book Tratamiento biol  gico de aguas residuales  principios  modelaci  n y dise  o

Download or read book Tratamiento biol gico de aguas residuales principios modelaci n y dise o written by C. M. Lopez-Vazquez and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En las últimas decadas, el conocimiento y entendimiento del tratamiento de aguas residuales ha avanzado extensamente evolucionando de enfoques basados en procedimientos meramente empíricos a enfoques con principios básicos que abarcan la química, microbiología, física, ingeniería de procesos y matemáticas. La gran mayoría de estos avances han madurado a tal grado que han sido codificados en modelos matemáticos para su simulación en computadoras. Para una nueva generación de jóvenes científicos e ingenieros que ingresan al área del tratamiento de aguas residuales, la cantidad, complejidad y diversidad de estos nuevos desarrollos puede ser abrumador, particularmente en países en vías de desarrollo donde no existe un fácil acceso a cursos avanzados de postgrado en tratamientos de aguas residuales. Este libro tiene como objetivo resolver esta deficiencia ya que compila e integra el material de diversos cursos de postgrado de más de una docena de grupos de investigación de todo el mundo que han hecho contribuciones significativas para el desarrollo del tratamiento de aguas residuales. Cabe resaltar que la edición en inglés del presente libro, forma parte de un plan de estudios en tratamiento biológico de aguas residuales que incluye: • Resúmenes de las presentaciones y clases de los temas cubiertos en el libro • Videos de las clases de los profesores autores de los capítulos del libro • Ejercicios de auto-aprendizaje para los participantes en los cursos Al término del plan de estudios antes mencionado, los últimos avances en modelación y simulación de la operación y diseño de los sistemas de tratamiento de aguas residuales (ya sean lodos activados, procesos de remoción biológica de nitrógeno y fósforo, clarificadores secundarios o sistemas de biopelículas) pueden ser abordados con mayor profundidad, conocimientos más avanzados y mayor confianza.

Book Geothermal Water Management

Download or read book Geothermal Water Management written by Jochen Bundschuh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-03-12 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Availability of and adequate accessibility to freshwater and energy are two key technological and scientific problems of global significance. At the end of the 20th century, the deficit of water for human consumption and economic application forced us to focus on rational use of resources. Increasing the use of renewable energy sources and improving energy efficiency is a challenge for the 21st century. Geothermal energy is heat energy generated and stored in the Earth, accumulated in hydrothermal systems or in dry rocks within the Earth’s crust, in amounts which constitute the energy resources. The sustainable management of geothermal energy resources should be geared towards optimization of energy recovery, but also towards rational management of water resources since geothermal water serves both as energy carrier and also as valuable raw material. Geothermal waters, depending on their hydrogeothermal characteristics, the lithology of the rocks involved, the depth at which the resources occur and the sources of water supply, may be characterized by very diverse physicochemical parameters. This factor largely determines the technology to be used in their exploitation and the way the geothermal water can be used. This book is focused on the effective use of geothermal water and renewable energy for future needs in order to promote modern, sustainable and effective management of water resources. The research field includes crucial new areas of study: • an improvement in the management of freshwater resources through the use of residual geothermal water; • a review of the technologies available in the field of geothermal water treatment for its (re)use for energetic purposes and freshwater production, and • the development of balneotherapy. The book is aimed at professionals, academics and decision makers worldwide, water sector representatives and administrators, business enterprises specializing in renewable energy management and water treatment, working in the areas of geothermal energy usage, water resources, water supply and energy planning. This book has the potential to become a standard text used by educational institutions and research & development establishments involved in the geothermal water management.

Book Bench Aids for the Diagnosis of Intestinal Parasites

Download or read book Bench Aids for the Diagnosis of Intestinal Parasites written by World Health Organization and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A set of nine A-4 color plates with 118 photomicrographs illustrating the appearance and diagnostic features of all the common intestinal helminths and protozoan parasites known to infect humans. Produced in a robust plasticized format, the plates can be used as either a guide for laboratory and field workers in endemic countries, or a teaching aid for students and trainees. The aim is to help the microscopist ascertain the presence of parasites in feces, whether they be minute protozoan cysts or large helminth eggs, and to identify them correctly. With this goal in mind, the bench aids include pertinent laboratory instructions as well as high-quality images. The photomicrographs illustrate diagnostic features of each of the parasites as they appear in different preparations and at different magnifications. Each photomicrograph is produced with a measuring bar and accompanied by a short explanatory legend, which draws attention to distinctive features that help confirm diagnosis. Helminth eggs are illustrated in the first 36 photomicrographs, which show the diagnostic stages of the most common helminthes, including nematodes, cestodes, schistosomes, and other trematodes. The remaining photomicrographs offer advice on the more difficult task of detecting and identifying intestinal protozoan trophozoites and cysts. Relevant laboratory techniques are described on the reverse side of the plates. Additional laboratory aids include dichotomous keys for the identification of amoebic trophozoites trophozoites of intestinal flagellates, and cysts of amoebae and flagellates.
