Water and Wastewater Engineering, Multi-Volume

Lawrence K. Wang has worked for decades in industrial, academic, and policy roles related to water treatment and water supply, including as a Senior Advisor to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and as a Delegate of the People to People International Foundation. He is a licensed Professional Engineer, a certified Laboratory Director, an OSHA Hazardous Waste Management Instructor, a vastly prolific author, and the holder of 29 patents. Mu-Hao Sung Wang is a Licensed Professional Engineer and a Diplomate of the American Academy of Water Engineers (AAEE). She has published widely on water quality, waste management, environmental sustainability, and related subjects, and holds 14 patents. Nazih K. Shammas worked for over 45 years as an environmental consultant and academic. He served as Dean and Director of the Lenox Institute of Water Technology and as an advisor to Krofta Engineering Corporation, USA. He published widely on environmental engineering subjects, with particular expertise in water quality control, wastewater reclamation, pollution prevention, and waste management.
