Abstract

(1) THE development of the investigation into sewage purification has proceeded on different lines in England and Germany, owing largely to the fact that practical necessities have compelled English towns to attempt some measure of purification in the absence of complete scientific information, whereas it has been possible in Germany to devote, in the first place, more attention to the theoretical aspect of the problem.
