i need any scientific reference,plz

[Haya]

Hi,
please recommend me any article/book/any scientific reference talks about effects of wastewater on environment, and another talks about effects of drinking contaminated water on human health; because i searched but i couldn't find what i need for my research in environmental engineering.
Thanks in advance...

Where have you searched? These topics are incredibly broad and looking into any search engine for papers you get easily hundreds of thousands of hits.

Maybe give the OP some search terms would help? Often, people don't know what to ask Google to get what they want.

Hard to say as OP has not provided a specific context. Wastewater management is almost always talked about in an environmental context, for example. So theoretically one could simply use that as a term and get overwhelmed. Lit often deals with specific aspects, like e.g. specific contaminants or specific environments, or specific wastewater sources or specific treatments etc.

Same goes with "contaminated water". What contamination? Feces, hazardous material, mining effluencts, specific bacteria etc. etc.

i googled what i need and you are right, information is everywhere but i need ( scientific, trusted ) reference, this one of the rules of doing a scientific research so i need books not websites. In addition, i am a junior student and i am doing a scientific research for the first time in my life to take part in a competition, so i have some problems about scientific references.

Google scholar?

Section 25 (Waste Management) of Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook.

 

Good general overview of legal obligations (for US at least), and practical means of meeting those obligations.

 

Plus an extensive reference list for research into specific areas of interest.
