Handbook Biological Wastewater Treatment - Design of Activated Sludge Systems

On this website you will find a huge amount of high quality information on the theory, design and optimisation of biological wastewater treatment plants. You might find it amazing, but it is available to you at no cost at all. The info is taken from the "Handbook Biological Wastewater Treatment - Design and optimisation of activated sludge systems", published in September 2007. Additionally you can find downloadable Excel based design tools on this site, that will help you to get quickly started with your own design project. Well, we suppose you might wonder by now:

• What kind of information is available on the website ?
• What's this handbook all about ?
• Who are the guys behind the website anyway ?
• What's in it for us ? Is there a catch ?
