Wetlands for Water Pollution Control, 3rd Edition, is an environmental engineering textbook authored by Miklas Scholz that outlines engineered and natural wetland systems for effective water quality management. Aimed primarily at advanced undergraduate and graduate students, the text details fundamental biological and physical treatment processes for contaminated liquid streams across diverse ecological environments.

The content synthesizes core principles of stormwater and wastewater drainage, sustainable drainage systems, and natural wetlands. Detailed thematic sections explore specialized remediation protocols for hydrocarbon pollutants, domestic greywater processing, and agricultural piggery wastewater. Additional chapters analyze stream pollution assessment, regulatory effluent standards, and the long-term impacts of climate change on natural wetland ecosystems.

Published by Elsevier, this volume integrates practical drainage infrastructure with ecological control mechanisms. The textbook delivers clear technical support for upper-level university courses in environmental engineering, environmental science, and water engineering, while offering structured guidance for professional engineers.
