Tracing the significance of river for arsenic enrichment and mobilization/Manish Kumar, Nilotpal Das and Kali Prasad Sarma…. The purpose of this book is to bring together and integrate the subject matter that deals with the water quality modelling, monitoring and assessment techniques, wastewater treatment technology and sociological approach in a single text. The book is divided into twenty chapters and is intended to be a comprehensive reference for students, professionals and researchers working on various aspects of water environment technology. The book seeks its impact from the diverse nature of content revealing situations from different countries of Asia. The papers published in this book were selected from the Ist International Forum on Asian Water Environment Technology held in 2013 in New Delhi, India. They are a showcase of the water environmental problems in Asia and the countermeasures to those problems. This book refers to water quality requirements emphasizing on the factors that affect the water environment. The treated wastewater as a new resource of water is also referred to enlighten the readers on the important items of water reuse. Selection of the most effective and proper waste water treatment is actually the essential part of generating a new water resource as well as protecting the receiving water environments. Thus, the fundamental principles of wastewater treatment and monitoring are focused in this book. It is believed that this book will help the readers to deal with various water environmental problems in Asian countries.
