Publisher's Synopsis
This WEMS Book brings together a selection of papers presented at the International Congress Aqua 2003 held in the historic city of Cartagena, Colombia, in October 2003. A total of 32 papers were selected out of the 87 presentations made at the Congress. They have been grouped in three different categories covering multiple uses of water, natural wastewater treatment, and knowledge transfer in the water sector. The editors wish to acknowledge the time-consuming work of the Scientific Committee refereeing submissions both before and after the event, which resulted in the selection of papers in this volume. The editors are most grateful to the authors of the papers in the volume which contributed to the success of Aqua 2003. The biennial Aqua congresses are becoming one of the most important technical and scientific events related to water management in Latin America. This book is out of print and is unavailable to purchase at this time.
