Springer Quality and Treatment of Drinking Water II by Jiri Hrubec, R.A. Baumann, I.R. Falconer
Drinking water quality is a vast and complex subject. In addition to the topics already addressed in Volume 5, part B of this Handbook in 1995, this new volume discusses in an authoritative way the current key issues of drinking water quality and its control: - Toxicity tests for assessing drinking water quality - Toxicological approaches for developing drinking water standards - Analysis of organic micropollutants - Algal toxins and human health - Quality changes due to application of ozone and chlorine dioxide. The articles are written by leading experts and present the state of the art of drinking water research._x000D_This volume will therefore be a valuable source not only for scientists and engineers, but also for decision-makers in government, environmental control and industry._x000D_ Table of contents :- _x000D_
