Water technologies: Treatment, desalination and purification

By Salah Karef

This book highlights the importance of water as a vital resource for life, the economy and ecosystems. Its management, whether for drinking water production or wastewater treatment, represents a major challenge in the face of demographic growth and the degradation of natural resources. Hydraulic engineers play a central role here, designing treatment systems that comply with health and environmental standards. Aimed at students of hydraulics and related disciplines, this book provides a structured introduction to the fundamental principles of water treatment and purification, linking theory and practice. It is divided into two parts: the first deals with potabilization (properties, clarification, finishing, desalination) and the second with purification (microbiology, pollution, biological and complementary treatments). Illustrated with diagrams and concrete examples, it aims to facilitate the understanding and application of hydraulic processes. The book is a comprehensive training tool and a useful reference for future engineers.
