Special Offer: KWR Drinking Water Treatment Set - Buy all five books together and save a total £119! The overall aim of Elimination of Micro-organisms by Water Treatment Processes is to present default values for the micro-organisms elimination or inactivation credit of universally used processes in water treatment (MEC or MIC). The growing interest in Quantitative Microbial Risk assessment (QMRA) for safe drinking water requires such data. These MEC or MIC values have been calculated from research on elimination of viruses, bacteria and bacterial spores and protozoa (oo)cysts (Cryptosporidium and Giardia) by these treatment processes published in the international literature. The data have been selected on the base of different quality criteria related to information on applied experimental conditions and used methods. Furthermore the studies have been categorized on base of their similarities with ‘real world’ conditions (selected micro-organisms, scale and conditions of the tested processes). The international literature data revealed a high variation in elimination. The major parameters and process control parameters affecting elimination are described. This new edition describes the state-of-the-art progress in research on conventional treatment, coagulation and flocculation, rapid granular filtration, slow sand filtration and UV disinfection.

After eighteen years, Mark Tinker's heart has gone out of teaching. He has worked in the same Texas school district throughout his career, but recent events have led him to question his professional calling. The school system is under the pall of scandal concerning the misappropriation of funds; also, administration officials refused to back Mark when he tried to fail a star athlete. The day after Mark tenders his resignation, the body of a woman--Mark's close friend and colleague--is found murdered behind a school dumpster. Mark finds himself drawn into the investigation, though at first he ignores a strange note which appears in his school mailbox that will be a vital link to the killer. When another tragedy occurs (a troubled student murders his family, then takes his own life), it seems as if the earlier crime might be solved. But it is not long before the body count begins to grow again and Mark continues to work closely with the police. An informal partner, his friend's sister, Susan, joins Mark in his collaboration with the police. Possible leads pull the investigative team in many directions: are the deaths connected to the pervasive scandal; is the local branch of the KKK involved; who is the shadowy Elvis figure who seems to be present at the time each crime occurs? Mark, despite the trauma of losing friends and students in this horrific crime spree, will tap into heretofore untried inner resources to find new meaning in his life as he also makes a romantic connection with Susan. Process of Elimination is a multifaceted, suspenseful thriller with a touch of poetry. Author William Rush adroitly manages the police procedural aspects of the story, while creating believable and complex psychological components that motivate the suspects and baffle the crimesolvers. He is also cannily aware of the elaborate political structure of a small city public school system. The result is an intricate puzzler that leads the investigative team down fascinating paths that keep the reader guessing through every twist and turn until the crimes are solved.
