Book Description
Excerpt from Sewerage and Sewage Disposal a d104book Since the three volumes of "American Sewerage Practice" were published in 1914-1915, the authors have been urged to prepare a single-volume abridgment of them for class use in engineering schools. The authors were reluctant to do this, because of two conditions. The first is the great variation in the time devoted to sewerage engineering in different schools. This has the result that a textbook so brief as to verge on the superficial from the viewpoint of one class may be too detailed for another. The second condition is the fact that some of those features of sewerage engineering which in practice it is most important to master are apparently held by those laying out college courses to deserve little attention from students. For example, a wise estimate of the quantities of sewage and storm water to be handled is the basis of design of a sewerage system, yet the methods of preparing such estimates and actual practice in their use receive relatively little attention in college courses. Furthermore, the best arrangement of the main sewers in a sewerage plan may depend largely upon the treatment, if any, that the sewage must receive before disposal and upon the place of disposal, subjects involving a knowledge of the nature of sewage and the changes which it undergoes under natural conditions or those involved in specific methods of treatment. Yet some college classes in sewerage engineering receive no instruction in sewage treatment. As the requests for a textbook continued, the authors finally decided to prepare a book giving the information which they consider it desirable for the young student to acquire before taking up work in this field. In a sense, they have felt under obligations as professional engineering specialists to do their part in smoothing the way for the first steps taken by engineering students in this branch of engineering. This book can be used in two ways. The text can be read and mastered within the time allotted to the subject even when the course is very short.

Book Description
Excerpt from Practical Sewerage and Sewage Disposal HE subject of Sewerage and Sewage Disposal is one upon which many books have already been written, but, generally speaking, . They contain a considerable amount of matter which is more or less theoretical, and much information, of methods good and bad, from which the reader is left to draw his own conclusions. The present work is intended to be more in the nature of a practical handbook, giving definite advice, as far as possible, to those who have actually to carry out work, omitting descriptions of unsatisfactory methods, and leaving the theoretical side of the question alone.

Book Description
Excerpt from Howrah The deep channel alternates from left to right and vice cersa according to the windings of the river, except where deflected by the large tributaries which debouch into it at the southern limit of this district. Proceeding from Howrah Bridge, the deep channel runs on the Calcutta side in the Calcutta Reach past the Fort and Kidderpore to Garden Reach. At Rajganj, Opposite Hangman Point, it crosses over to the Howrah Side, and follows the Sankrail Reach as far as Melancholy (menikhali) Point. It then zigzags from left to right at each bend.

Book Description
Excerpt from Sewage Disposal Use has been made freely in this book of various professional papers prepared in recent years by me and also professional reports which I have made both individually and as a member of the former firm of Hering Fuller. Lawrence data have also been used freely and suggestions have been received from Mr. H. W. Clark in regard to some of the reports of the Massachusetts State Board of Health since 1894, when there was published a summary of results, prepared by me, of the first seven years of operation of the Lawrence experiment station.

Book Description
The Romans developed sophisticated methods for managing hygiene, including aqueducts for moving water from one place to another, sewers for removing used water from baths and runoff from walkways and roads, and public and private latrines. Through the archeological record, graffiti, sanitation-related paintings, and literature, Ann Olga Koloski-Ostrow explores this little-known world of bathrooms and sewers, offering unique insights into Roman sanitation, engineering, urban planning and development, hygiene, and public health. Focusing on the cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Ostia, and Rome, Koloski-Ostrow's work challenges common perceptions of Romans' social customs, beliefs about health, tolerance for filth in their cities, and attitudes toward privacy. In charting the complex history of sanitary customs from the late republic to the early empire, Koloski-Ostrow reveals the origins of waste removal technologies and their implications for urban health, past and present.

Book Description
Excerpt from Sewerage and Sewage Disposal Having had occasion in my own practice to in vestigate the information which of recent years has become available to engineers, through the researches of chemists and biologists, in relation to Water Supply, Sewerage and Sewage Disposal, I have thought that a concise summary of the most important data would be useful. I have confined this book as far as possible within the limits of data in connection with works of Sewerage and Sewage Disposal, although in dealing with River Pollution and Filtration of Impure Water, the allied subjects of Water Pollution and Sewage Purification necessarily overlap. In fact, the functions of micro-organisms, which affect the consideration of both, must be well understood by engineers who have to advise in.
