Domestic Wastewater Treatment in Developing Countries

Resumen del Libro

Affordable and effective domestic wastewater treatment is a critical issue in public health and disease prevention around the world, particularly so in developing countries which often lack the financial and technical resources necessary for proper treatment facilities.This practical guide provides state-of-the-art coverage of methods for domestic wastewater treatment and provides a foundation to the practical design of wastewater treatment and re-use systems. The emphasis is on low-cost, low-energy, low-maintenance, high-performance 'natural' systems that contribute to environmental sustainability by producing effluents that can be safely and profitably used in agriculture for crop irrigation and/or in aquaculture, for fish and aquatic vegetable pond fertilization. Modern design methodologies, with worked design examples, are described for waste stabilization ponds, wastewater storage and treatment reservoirs; constructed wetlands, upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors, biofilters, aerated lagoons and oxidation ditches. This book is essential reading for engineers, academics and upper-level and graduate students in engineering, wastewater management and public health, and others interested in sustainable and cost-effective technologies for reducing wastewater-related diseases and environmental damage.

Cataluña

Actualmente estamos viviendo un momento atávico. El desarrollo de los acontecimientos presentes, no son una novedad para el reino de España. La declaración de independencia proclamada en 2017, significa el cuarto desafío de los políticos catalanes a sus conterráneos. La última felonía —debiera decir, penúltima—, tan solo se diferencia de las anteriores en el paso de los años y el lógico avance social, ni tan siquiera los argumentos cambian. El resto de los acontecimientos a pesar de los siglos, es una calca de la primera defección llevada a cabo en el siglo XVII.En el presente ...

Rabia

In this book, which is an x-ray of the state of Latin America, eight journalists describe the fissures that have opened up in their territories in recent years. The chronicles show, with the turns, sayings and expressions of each country, the entrails of their societies in living sore. That's what this book is about: the moment when a crack opens in the facade of normalcy and we see what our societies are made of.

El dolo eventual

Sin pretender clasificar el delito doloso como el mayor o menor agravante de delito, aunque considerándolo un elemento de tipo, el dolo viene determinado por muchas variantes doctrinales. En el presente trabajo se resalta el papel decisivo como elemento intelectual y delimitador entre imputación de un resultado lesivo a título de dolo e imputación de resultado lesivo a título de imprudencia.
