Engineering Risk Analysis of Water Pollution

This text combines the probabilistic approach and the use of fuzzy set theory to analyze the questions or risk and reliability in water quality. It also develops a methodology to assess, evaluate and control the risk of water pollution and the environment impact from wastewater disposal on rivers, groundwater and coastal areas. Other topics covered include: stochastic and fuzzy simulation of hydrosystems; decision theory under uncertainty - groundwater pollution; and risk management, elements of multiobjective trade-offs. This book is intended for students, engineers and scientists working in the field of water resources and environmental water quality
