| Sommario/riassunto: | UN studies show that high-income, developed nations treat about 70 percent of their wastewater. However, in low-income developing nations, only 8 percent of wastewater undergoes any kind of treatment. Inadequate water treatment has serious consequences for both human health and the environment. The articles in this compendium provide a representative cross sample of both developing and developed nations' water treatment facilities. Included are the following topics:Reclaimed water for irrigation reuse in developing countriesSludge-handling practices in MicronesiaThe removal of phthalate esters |
