This book presents under one cover, the procedures step-by-step,
environmental significance, practical applications of each test, sample collection
programme and sampling techniques and also standards of water for various uses.
The book is divided in well-arranged five chapters - dealing
with major water and waste water quality parameters of physical, chemical and
biological. It describes the methods used for planning and sampling of ground
and surface waters, etc. It also deal with how to analyse conventional water
and waste water quality parameters; and also with water quality standards for
use in various organisations.
The book contains numerous objective questions useful
for various competitive examinations on this subject.
As most of the Indian Universities have included water
analysis as Laboratory course, the book should be extremely useful to the students
of Civil and Environmental Engineering and also for M.Sc., Botony, Zoology, Earth Sciences and Environmental
Sciences.
