The treatment and disposal of wastewater is an issue which is currently being rigorously addressed in European Community Directive and UK regulations, bringing increasing financial and technical pressure to bear on companies in the water industry. This book presents studies of the ways in which water companies have been implementing the legislation and translating the costs of meeting Regulations into measurable environmental benefits. Individual schemes are reported, highlighting the technological advances being developed to meet legislative requirements.
