Answer: This book shows you the way! In a unique and comprehensive manner, questions of risk and reliability in water quality are analyzed. And more than that: The author also develops a methodology to evaluate the environmental impact of wastewater disposal on rivers, groundwater and coastal areas.Major topics covered include: fuzzy set theory for engineering risk analysis/ uncertainty analysis of water quantity and quality data/ stochastic and fuzzy simula 606 $aWater$xPollution 606 $aWater$xPollution potential 606 $aSewage$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aWater quality 606 $aEnvironmental risk assessment 615 0$aWater$xPollution. 615 0$aWater$xPollution potential. 615 0$aSewage$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aWater quality. 615 0$aEnvironmental risk assessment. 676 $a553.7 676 $a628.168 700 $aGanoulis$b J$0888180 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910144592203321 996 $aEngineering risk analysis of water pollution$91984069 997 $aUNINA
