Features: This book consists of 24 chapters, divided into 5 parts. Part 1 is the General Introduction (Chapters 1–3), which primarily includes: the composition and layout of water supply systems; calculation of design water demand; flow relationships and pressure relationships among various components of the water supply system. Part 2 is Water Transmission and Distribution Engineering (Chapters 4–10), which mainly covers: the layout of pipelines and water conveyance channels; calculation of pipe segment flow, pipe diameter, and head loss; hydraulic calculations of pipelines; technical and economic calculations of pipelines; energy analysis and design of zoned water supply systems; water pipe materials, accessories, and pipeline ancillary structures; technical management of pipelines. Part 3 is Water Intake Engineering (Chapters 11–13), which mainly includes: an overview of water resources and water supply sources; groundwater intake structures; surface water intake structures. Part 4 is Water Treatment (Chapters 14–22), which mainly covers: water quality and reactor principles; coagulation; sedimentation and clarification; filtration; disinfection; iron and manganese removal from groundwater; fluoride removal; activated carbon adsorption for micro pollutant removal in water; surface water treatment plant design; water softening; desalination and seawater desalination, etc. Part 5 is Water Cooling and Circulating Cooling Water Quality Treatment (Chapters 23 and 24), which mainly includes: the principles of water cooling and cooling structures; water quality treatment of circulating cooling water. This book focuses on incorporating new theories, technologies, and equipment in domestic and international water supply engineering. The book also includes numerous examples, exercises, and thought-provoking questions.
