Since the previous edition of water supply was published in 1994, there have been significant changes in the field. S ystems have been updated and re-designed, and new concepts such as demand management are now commonplace in the water technologists environment. This new edition is written by experts from one of the top engineering consultancies in the world and covers up-to-date issues in water engineering. International standards are examined in depth and there is detailed coverage of WHO, UK, European and US standards, organisations and practices. The authors adopt a practical approach throughout and provide a wide survey of all the processes involved in procuring, treating and distributing water.
