The volume is written as a scholarly text to demonstrate that women compete successfully in the field, dating back to 1873. Each authors? chapter includes a section on her contribution to the field and a biography written for a general audience. This volume also includes a significant representation of early women?s contributions, highlighting their rich history in the profession. The book covers topics such as drinking water and health, biologically-active compounds, wastewater management, and biofilms. This volume should be of interest to academics, researchers, consulting engineering offices, and engineering societies while also inspiring young women to persist in STEM studies and aspire to academic careers. Features a blend of innovations and contributions made by women in water quality engineering, as well as their path to success, including challenges in their journeys Presents an opportunity to learn about the breadth and depth of the field of water quality Includes a history of women in water quality engineering as well as research in current issues such as urban water quality, biologically-active compounds, and biofilms. 410 0$aWomen in Engineering and Science,$x2509-6427 606 $aFluid mechanics 606 $aWater pollution 606 $aEnvironmental sciences 606 $aEngineering geology 606 $aEngineering?Geology 606 $aFoundations 606 $aHydraulics 606 $aWater quality 606 $aWomen 606 $aEngineering Fluid Dynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T15044 606 $aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040 606 $aEnvironmental Science and Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G37000 606 $aGeoengineering, Foundations, Hydraulics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23020 606 $aWater Quality/Water Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/212000 606 $aWomen's Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35040 615 0$aFluid mechanics. 615 0$aWater pollution. 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences. 615 0$aEngineering geology. 615 0$aEngineering?Geology. 615 0$aFoundations. 615 0$aHydraulics. 615 0$aWater quality. 615 0$aWomen. 615 14$aEngineering Fluid Dynamics. 615 24$aWaste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution. 615 24$aEnvironmental Science and Engineering. 615 24$aGeoengineering, Foundations, Hydraulics. 615 24$aWater Quality/Water Pollution. 615 24$aWomen's Studies. 676 $a620.1064 676 $a628.161 702 $aO?Bannon$b Deborah Jean$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910366586903321 996 $aWomen in Water Quality$92280487 997 $aUNINA
