Biosolids Applied to Land: Advancing Standards and Practices (Electronic book text)

Wastewater treatment in the United States is a major cornerstone of efforts to keep the nation's waters clean. Since the early 1970s, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the wastewater treatment industry have promoted the recycling of sewage sludge, the residue generated during the treatment of domestic sewage. Biosolids Applied to Land: Advancing Standards and Practices examines the land application standards of sewage sludge.
