This is a practical guide to wastewater pathogens. The fourth volume in "Wiley's Wastewater Microbiology" series, "Wastewater Pathogens" offers wastewater personnel a practical guide that is free of overly technical jargon. Designed especially for operators, the text provides straight facts on the biology of treatment as well as appropriate protective measures. Coverage includes: an overview of relevant history, hazards, and organisms; viruses, bacteria, and fungi; protozoa and helminthes; ectoparasites and rodents; aerosols, foam, and sludge; disease transmission and the body's defenses; removal, inactivation, and destruction of pathogens; and hygiene measures, protective equipment, and immunizations.
MICHAEL H. GERARDI holds an MS in biology from James Madison University and provides wastewater operator training and troubleshooting of municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Europe. He has authored more than eighty technical articles. He is currently responsible for the development and presentation of wastewater biology courses at the Pennsylvania State University. MEL C. ZIMMERMAN is professor and chair of the Biology Department at Lycoming College. He also directs the Clean Water Institute at Lycoming. He has been teaching courses in ecology, aquatic biology, and tropical marine biology for twenty--four years. His research and publications deal with stream ecology and restoration, wetland ecology, and wastewater biology.
