Читать книгу Introduction to Desalination - Louis Theodore - Страница 29

This chapter provides definitions for many, but not all, of the terms that the reader will encounter in this book. It should be noted that some of the definitions specifically refer to the United States and that a good number of definitions pertain to wastewater and wastewater-related terms. It should also be noted that many of the terms have come to mean different things to different people, and this will become evident as one delves deeper into the applicable literature. Finally, the bulk of the material in this chapter was drawn from the earlier work of Theodore et al. (1997).
