Riassunto

This book gives both theoretical knowledge and practical approaches on the complex process of water management in case of pollution with chemical and biological hazards. The text provides an overview of chemicals and toxins that may be used for intentional water pollution. Critical for successful prevention and control actions of accidental and intentional water pollution is the preliminary risk assessment, understanding of the hazards, and lessons learned from previous pollution events.
