Bioelectrochemical SystemsEditors: Korneel Rabaey, Lars Angenent, Uwe Schroder and JurgKellerISBN: 9781843392330Dec 2009• 524 pages • HardbackIWA members price: £ 77.25 / US$ 139.05 / € 104.29http://www.iwapublishing.com/template.cfm?name=isbn9781843392330In the context of wastewater treatment, Bioelectrochemical Systems (BESs) have gainedconsiderable interest in the past few years, and several BES processes are on the brinkof application to this area. This book, written by a large number of world experts in thedifferent sub-topics, describes the different aspects and processes relevant to theirdevelopment.Bioelectrochemical Systems (BESs) use micro-organisms to catalyze an oxidation and/orreduction reaction at an anodic and cathodic electrode respectively. Briefly, at ananode oxidation of organic and inorganic electron donors can occur. Prime examples ofsuch electron donors are waste organics and sulfides. At the cathode, an electronacceptor such as oxygen or nitrate can be reduced. The anode and the cathode areconnected through an electrical circuit. If electrical power is harvested from thiscircuit, the system is called a Microbial Fuel Cell; if electrical power is invested, thesystem is called a Microbial Electrolysis Cell.-----____________________________________________________________________________________________________________18IWA <strong>Specialist</strong> <strong>Group</strong> on Microbial Ecology and Water Engineering:Newsletter July 2011
Biological Wastewater Treatment: Third EditionAuthors: C.P. Leslie Grady, Jr., Glen T. Daigger, Nancy G Love,Carlos D.M. FilipeISBN: 9781843393429May 2011• 1200 pages • HardbackIWA members price: £ 57.75 / US$ 103.95 / € 77http://www.iwapublishing.com/template.cfm?name=isbn9781843393429Written by experts in the field, the thoroughly updated 3rd Edition of BiologicalWastewater Treatment covers commonly used and emerging suspended and attachedgrowth reactors. Drawing on their extensive academic and industrial experience, theauthors discuss combined carbon and ammonia oxidation, activated sludge, biologicalnutrient removal, aerobic digestion, anaerobic processes, lagoons, trickling filters,rotating biological contactors, fluidized beds, and biologically aerated filters to providea comprehensive understanding of the field of biological wastewater treatment. Theyintegrate the principles of biochemical processes with applications in the real world,communicating approaches to the conception, design, operation, and optimization ofbiochemical unit operations in a comprehensive yet lucid manner.-----________________________________________________________________________________________________________IWA <strong>Specialist</strong> <strong>Group</strong> on Microbial Ecology and Water Engineering:19Newsletter July 2011
