<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Wastewater quality and the quantity produced determine the means of disposal and the costs of disposal. Suspended solids, total dissolved solids, and oxygen demand of produced waters have the most impact on wastewater treatment. Wastewater is a complex mixture of organic and inorganic compounds and the largest volume of by-product generated during chemical processing and both conventional and unconventional oil and gas recovery operations. The potential of oilfield produced water to be a source of fresh water for water-stressed oil-producing countries and the increasing environmental concerns in addition to stringent legislations on produced water discharge into the environment have made produced water management a significant part of the oil and gas business"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Unravels fundamental engineering for the </b><b>treatment, recovery, and disposal of solid waste, sludge and wastewater in the petroleum, chemical, and unconventional oil and gas processing industries</b></p> <p>This new edition unravels essential requirements for the process design and engineering of the equipment and facilities pertaining to waste management for gas refineries, chemical plants, oil terminals, and petrochemical plants.</p> <p>Updated throughout, <i>Waste Management in the Chemical and Petroleum Industries, Second Edition</i> offers chapters on wastewater treatment; physical unit operations; chemical treatment; biological treatment; and wastewater treatment in unconventional oil and gas industries.
