Activity and movement of plant nutrients and other trace substances
Abstract
"Biosolids is the term for an organic fertilizer or soil amendment produced by the treatment of domestic wastewater. Domestic wastewater treatment and disposal are evident in the archaeological digs, but the practice of community-wide treatment did not evolve until the late 19th century. Since then, wastewater treatment technology has advanced. Many new publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) were built weith federal help. As communities face stricter regulations against polluting land and streams, more industries will remove their containments before passing the waste on to the community. The resulting biosolids and effluents can be appplied to land as nutrient and water sources."--First page
