Transport of Escherichia coli in Saturated Porous Media

Explore the intricate world of microbial transport with "Transport of Escherichia coli in Saturated Porous Media" by Jan Willem Foppen. Published in 2017 by Taylor & Francis Ltd, this insightful hardback spans 274 pages and delves into a crucial environmental issue—how wastewater infiltration can lead to groundwater contamination. Foppen meticulously evaluates the transport processes of bacteria, particularly focusing on pathogenic microorganisms that pose a significant risk when they travel from pollution sources to groundwater abstraction points. This comprehensive study not only highlights the potential dangers of groundwater contamination but also offers a deeper understanding of bacterial behavior in saturated porous media. Ideal for researchers, environmentalists, and students alike, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in water safety and environmental health.
