Author Description

Selected Papers of the 3rd IWA Leading-Edge Conference Water and Wastewater Treatment Technologies, held in Sapporo, Japan, 6-8 June 2005. IWA's series of leading edge conferences on water and wastewater technology has rapidly become a key platform for exposure of crucial advances in these fields. The 2005 event saw the advances in wastewater treatment: industrial wastewater treatment technologies; membrane bioreactors; simulation and modelling for improved wastewater treatment; nutrient removal and recovery; combining novel technologies for improved wastewater treatment; and cost effective and efficient technologies for sludge management. Comprising papers by some of the world's leading authorities on these topics, these proceedings will prove highly valuable and insightful for anyone involved in fundamental research into these processes or the development of such technologies for practical application.
