About This Book

A practical manual surveys municipal methods for collecting and disposing of urban wastes—street refuse, ashes, rubbish, garbage, manure, and sewage—presenting operational practices, organization, equipment, regulations, and cost data. It describes street cleaning techniques, sewer systems and treatment options (sedimentation, septic and Imhoff tanks, filtration, chemical and biological processes, disinfection), and collection systems including districting, receptacle placement, frequency, and enforcement. Disposal technologies such as incineration, reduction, sanitary fills and land dumping are examined alongside possibilities for by-product revenue. The work also outlines public clean-up campaigns, inspection and propaganda methods, and managerial principles for improving sanitary efficiency and municipal economy.
