The first part of the text introduces the fundamentals of water quality management, and water and wastewater treatment. The remaining focus of the text is on reviewing treatment technologies, disinfection issues, sludge treatment and disposal options, and current case studies related to constructed wetlands applied for runoff and diffuse pollution treatment.Constructed wetlandsUrban runoffWatershed managementWaterPurificationBiological treatmentElectronic books.Constructed wetlands.Urban runoff.Watershed management.WaterPurificationBiological treatment.628/.21Scholz Miklas954732MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457239003321Wetland systems to control urban runoff2159458UNINA
