"Sewage Infrastructure" explores the complex network of pipes, tunnels, and treatment facilities that form the backbone of urban development. The book traces the evolution of sewage systems from ancient civilizations to modern cities, highlighting key engineering innovations and societal impacts along the way.
The content covers three main areas: historical development, current engineering practices, and future challenges in wastewater management. It examines how sewage infrastructure reflects societal progress and influences public health, urban planning, and environmental stewardship.
While technical in nature, the book balances academic rigor with accessibility, using historical narratives and case studies to illustrate complex concepts. It targets professionals in civil engineering and urban planning, but its holistic approach makes it relevant to a broader audience interested in the hidden systems supporting modern life.
