Features: This book incorporates many recent research findings in this discipline, including several research achievements and new academic perspectives by the author over the past decade. It is suitable for drainage engineering designers, environmental consultants, researchers and monitoring personnel, as well as faculty and students of relevant disciplines in universities and colleges. Based on the discussion of pollutant transport mechanisms in water bodies, the book systematically introduces analytical and empirical calculation methods for dilution near discharge points, mixing zones, and long-distance pollution bands under various discharge conditions and environmental settings when wastewater (or pollutants) is discharged into rivers and oceans. This includes the analytical calculation of concentration fields for biodegradable substances. Additionally, it summarizes the hydraulic design theory for offshore wastewater disposal outflow systems, covering seawater extraction and prevention of intrusion design. The book compares and analyzes different methods for solving the same problem, recommending more reliable approaches.
