Unit Operations and Processes in Environmental Engineering,
By Jose Vergara (Los Angeles, California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Unit Operations and Processes in Environmental Engineering, Second Edition (Hardcover)
Good and well organized book for a graduate class in environmental/sanitary engineering. Unlike the traditionally used book, it is organized for easy reference and study. It includes most of the unit processes to consider in the desing of wastewater and water treatment plants. I wish it would expand a litte more in the water part. The wastewater is covered very well. It is a good book to keep as a reference. Answer to key problems are provided for easiness of verification of process. Couple of formulas are outdated in the air transfer chapter, not major problem.

Unit Operations and Processes in Environmental Engineering, Second Edition,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Unit Operations and Processes in Environmental Engineering, Second Edition (Hardcover)
It is a rather complete book on the subject. Its content is appropriate for an undergraduate course in Environmental Engineering. It has one important deficit: most of the mathematical equations are not fully derived and the student will have to resort to other books to have a better understanding of what she/he is applying in solving a problem.
2.0 out of 5 stars
Lacks Explanations for Many Problems, Lots of Typoes and Incorrect Information,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Unit Operations and Processes in Environmental Engineering, Second Edition (Hardcover)
This is possibly one of the worst texts I have ever used. Many of the example problems contain typos or diagrams that do not match the given problem. Numbers are often pulled out of thin air without explanation. Many of the "answers" in the back of the text are incorrect. Some chapter problems cover material not covered in the chapters. Additionally, the solutions provided by the publisher are often incorrect. This textbook needs a significant overhaul before it can be considered appropriate for use in undergraduate or graduate programs!!
