In warmer climates, sewage loses its content of dissolved oxygen more rapidly, causing it to become "stale" or "septic", necessitating the use of waste stabilization ponds. Waste stabilization ponds utilize environmentally-aware technology in treating the wastewater of communities in hot climates. This book covers waste stabilization ponds in detail, and examines wastewater management and treatment today.
"Sewerage and Sewage Treatment" by Harold E. Babbitt often goes overlooked as simply a manual about sewage and drainage protocol during the late 1800s and early 1900s. However, that is far from the truth. Babbitt, a university professor, manages to make the topic not only informative but also fascinating. By illustrating the ways in which cities' drainage systems functioned, in fact, allows modern readers to learn about society during the time the text was written. Thus, even if the information contained within the pages of the book is outdated, the interest in reading it still remains.
