	Water Filtration Practices: Including Slow-Sand and Precoat Filtration
	Order Code: AW085 Price: £75.99
Water filtration plant operators and managers provide important public health protection to those who are served by water systems. The book was prepared with the goal of assisting operators and managers to do their best as they strive to produce safe drinking water. Water Filtration Practices provides experienced water operators with practical guidance on the operation and maintenance of pretreatment, rapid rate granular media filtration, slow sand filtration, and diatomaceous earth filtration systems. The book is designed for water treatment plant operators who have advanced beyond the basic operator position. It is intended for the licensed operator who works at a filtration plant. It will also be useful for the newer, less-experienced engineer working in a water treatment plant, consulting firm, or regulatory agency. Water Filtration Practices emphasizes the "how to" aspects of water filtration. For example, the book will tell you how to: Determine and monitor pretreatment for coagulation and lime softening plants Operate and maintain rapid rate granular media filters Make changes in pretreatment and filtration based on varying source water quality Correctly backwash granular media filters and start filters after backwash with a minimum of filtered-water quality disruption Inspect filters for proper operation Enhance the performance of filters Troubleshoot filter problems and correct them Monitor granular media performance Operate and maintain slow sand filters Operate and maintain diatomaceous earth filters You will find recommended procedures for operating, monitoring, and maintaining all types of filters: rapid rate granular media filters, slow sand filters, and diatomaceous earth filters. These procedures are tested and time-proven by hundreds of water utilities and filtration experts to provide high filter efficiency, excellent water quality, long filter runs, and minimum downtime. The book also tells you what not to do (and why), so you will avoid water quality problems, filter damage, and treatment problems further down the line.
