Introduction to Sewer and Drainage Systems -- Applications of Digital Technologies in Sewer System Management -- Attenuation Properties of Gravel and Other Layered Mediums -- IoT for Sewer Conditions Assessment -- Path Loss in Sewer Mains, Manholes, and Surface Facilities -- Medium Access Control in Surface Facilities -- IoT and Preventive Maintenance of Sanitary Sewers -- Sensors and Antennas in Drainage Systems -- Impulse Response Measurements to Prevent Combined Sewer Overflows -- Attenuation Measurements in Different Sewer Environments -- Sensor-free Resonant Frequency Sensing in Storm Drains and Sanitary Sewers Testbeds -- Real-time Data Collection and Decision Making in Sanitary Systems -- Case Studies: Cities Using IoT for CSO -- A Survey of Existing Sensors Systems in Collection Systems Management.

This multidisciplinary book provides insights into the applications of the Internet of Things (IoT) to combined sewer overflows (CSO) and stormwater management (SWM) systems. It explores technical challenges and presents recent results to improve sewer and drainage system management using wireless underground communications and sensing in IoT. The book addresses both existing sensing network technologies and those currently in development in three major areas of CSO: combined sewer overflow management, subsurface sensing, and antennas in the layered medium. It explores new applications of IoT in sewer systems to improve public health, foster economic growth, and enhance environmental quality and responsibility for the community. Internet of Things in Smart Sewer and Drainage Systems: Theory and Applications will be a valuable reference for graduate students and academic researchers, as well as a hands-on guide for wastewater technicians, sanitary engineers, environmental specialists, and related industry practitioners. Explains fundamental applications in easy-to-understand language; Provides a complete reference on all aspects of sewer and drainage systems; Includes MATLAB programs for models and analysis.
