K.S. Venkateswarlu "Water Chemistry ; Industrial and Power Station Water Treatment"

Study of water and steam chemistry transcends the traditional barriers between chemistry, engineering and physics. On account of its multi-disciplinary nature, the study of water chemistry has become technologically significant. This book is an attempt to bring to the attention of academic and professional chemists, various facets of water chemistry.

It blends basic and applied knowledge in this field. The subject matter covered includes properties of water at elevated temperatures, the characteristics of natural and industrial cooling waters as well as purifications by ion exchange and reverse osmosis. Several chapters are devoted to water and steam chemistry in thermal and nuclear power stations and in the utilisation of geothermal energy. Effluent treatment and water conservation have been dealt with briefly to provide a better and comprehensive study of the subject.

About the Author(s):

Dr. K.S. Venkateswarlu

had his early education in Andhra Pradesh, India. He joined the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Trombay, Bombay in 1955. He obtained a D.Sc. degree in 1961 for his work on, Chemical Consequences of Nuclear Transformations. During his stay at the Argonne National Laboratory, USA, he worked on the chemistry of transplutonium elements and radiation damage in graphite. Later his research interests encompassed solvent extraction, ion exchange, metal complexes, super conductivity and cold fusion. A large number of students have taken their Ph. D. degrees under his supervision.

From 1970 onwards, Dr. Venkateswarlu was closely involved with the development of water chemistry in all its aspects. He established a Division of Water Chemistry in BARC with a specialised Water and Stream Chemistry Laboratory at Kalpakkam near Madras. He was Chairman of the Committee on Steam and Water Chemistry, Dept. of Atomic Energy, Govt. of India and was nominated to be the Chief Scientific Investigator of the Coordinated Research Programme on Water Chemistry in Nuclear Power Reactors conducted by the International Atomic Energy Agency. He was also the Expert Coordinator for the study on Water Chemistry in Thermal Power Stations carried out by the Central Board of Irrigation and Power, New Delhi. He has attended a number of national and international conferences in this field. Dr. Venkateswarlu is the author of over a 100 publications.
