Following a general discussion of the effects of different types of industrial waste on the waters receiving these wastes, and a survey of methods available for assessing the polluting strength of effluents (e.g. Biochemical Oxygen Demand and Chemical Oxygen Demand) analyses are given of the occurrence and nature of specified malting and brewery effluents. Methods of treatment, including the use of bacteria beds and of activated sludge are described and evaluated and estimates of costs of treatment and disposal are suggested.
