Stormwater Treatment
Biological, Chemical, and Engineering Principles
Gary Minton, Ph.D., P.E.
The first true engineering textbook, the book explains how stormwater treatment systems "work": the various physical, biological, and chemical processes that remove pollutants. Understanding these processes leads to more rationale and cost-effective decisions regarding: design criteria, which treatment BMPs meet adopted performance goals, which BMPs to use or not use to meet particular receiving water requirements or needs, the relationship between maintenance and performance, and how to conduct laboratory and field performance studies. Included are sizing procedures, key design elements, and maintenance practices to maximize performance and reliability.
