Engineered ponds, lagoons, and wetlands have been used for centuries to treat and manage wastewater, and they are still widely used today. They require very few external energy and material inputs and provide ecosystem services for communities. This book presents a compilation of guidelines to design ponds, lagoons, and wetlands for the treatment and management of domestic or municipal wastewater, agricultural wastewater, and industrial waste. Sufficient detail and clarity is provided for practitioners to use this book as a reference, and for senior year or graduate college students to develop an understanding of the design concepts for these engineered natural treatment systems.

Matthew Verbyla is currently a postdoctoral scientific collaborator at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne in Switzerland, and he will start a position as an assistant professor of environmental engineering at San Diego State University in California in August 2017. He has a bachelor of science in civil engineering (2006) from Lafayette College, and a master of science in environmental engineering (2012) and a PhD in environmental engineering (2015) both from the University of South Florida. His research and teaching activities address sustainable development challenges at the intersection of food-energy-water systems and public health. Specifically, he is interested in the microbiology of wastewater and the study of water pathogens and the microbial risk of water reuse and resource recovery.
