In this present age, when every man is aware of the importance of sustainable environment, training the mass in environment management is the need of hours. It is necessary to change people’s attitude towards the importance of water. Sewage sludge has valuable agronomic properties in agriculture. In using sewage sludge account must be taken of the nutrient needs of the plants without, however, impairing neither the quality of the soil nor that of surface and ground water. The book forms a significant contribution for research scientist agriculturists, environmentalists and researchers engaged in the field of water pollution control and management.”--Book cover
