Abstract: Water quality is a major concern worldwide. With the increasing population and rapid industrialization, water quality is suffering. Water quality instruction in many colleges and universities tends to focus on the chemical, biological, and physical quality of water, quality management of marine and freshwater ecosystems, treatment strategies for water bodies for urban and domestic use, waterborne infectious diseases, and indicator bacteria of pollution. This book presents a comprehensive overview of water quality along with a series of solutions and recommendations detailing global treatment strategies for water pollution. It is a useful resource for students at all levels as well as researchers and industry experts in the domains of fisheries, forestry, geology, nutrition, and agriculture.
