Modern Methods of Sewage Purification: a Guide for the Designing and Maintenance of Sewage Purification Works

Abstract

IN view of the numerous text-books dealing with the purification of sewage which have recently appeared it would seem difficult to justify the publication of a further work on the subject. During the long period in which the author has been associated with the Royal Commission on Sewage Disposal he has had exceptional opportunities of personally investigating the various methods which have been adopted for the solution of the difficult problem of the economic disposal of sewage, and consequently he is well qualified to undertake a treatise on the subject.

Modern Methods of Sewage Purification: a Guide for the Designing and Maintenance of Sewage Purification Works.

By G. Bertram Kershaw. Pp. xiii + 356. (London: Charles Griffin and Company, Ltd., 1911.) Price 21s. net.
