This chapter examines the main characteristics of German environmental law. It first explains how powers are allocated with regards to environmental law in Germany, focusing on environmental protection as a so-called national objective, anchored in the German Federal Constitution, the Basic Law (Grundgesetz); the devolution of legislative and executive competences with respect to German environmental law; and how the law is shaped by international obligations. The discussion then turns to the structure and substance of German environmental law, particularly as it applies to air pollution control, water management and water protection, waste management, nature and species protection, and nuclear energy. The chapter concludes with an analysis of the implementation framework for German environmental law, taking into account how the government resorts to the concept of ‘normative concretization’ to address implementation-related issues arising from complex projects.

The water quality model is an efficient tool for water pollution control, water quality planning and environmental management. In accordance with the need of prediction, analysis and management of water quality, this article presents different application conditions for various water quality model, including zero-dimension, one-dimension, two-dimension and multidimensional. Then the application of water quality model in different areas are summarized here.

Citarum River is the largest river in West Java province, which due to high functionality and benefit of this river has been constructed three large cascade reservoirs: Saguling-Cirata-Jatiluhur that produce arround 1,900 MW electricity and irrigate the paddy fields with technical irrigation for DKI Jakarta over 240,000 ha and water supply through the West Tarum Canal, East Tarum Canal and North Tarum Canal.However, Citarum river is very polluted. Various efforts starting from laws and regulations as well as structuring of institution,and has been done several government programs establishing to control water pollution control. However, Citarum river can not be restorated properly due to disposal of wastewater still permits regardless of the factual condition. This study aimed at analysing the sustainability status of water pollution control in Citarum riverby applyingMulti Dimensional Scaling method covering the dimensions: Policy, Technical, Economic, Socio-Cultural, Law Enforcement and StakeholdersSupport, in order to define a proposal for him solution.The results of the study for the existing condition in 2015 that in all dimensions less sustainable.However, foryear 2030 and 2050 the so technical dimension increased significantly as a highly sustainable status followed by other dimensions achieving sustainable status. The analysis results indicated that a technical dimension can be more implemented than others, and the most difficult one is the economic dimension.

With the introduction of IWRM, local government institutions are expected to control water-related pollution, which is often associated with new water resource management, supply, and sanitation responsibilities devolved to them as part of decentralisation. The aim of this study was to look into eco-efficiency, environmental performance, physical scarcity and economic scarcity trends, sustainable variables, and externalities associated with the introduction of IWRM in Malawi. Focus group discussions and interviews were conducted with policymakers and households in Ntcheu, Mangochi, and Balaka. Findings confirmed that the challenges local levels of government face in managing water infrastructure and formulation of pollution control measures are a result of the fact that adoption of IWRM happened without any readiness to do so, especially in terms of water-related pollution control.

Water Pollution in Karang Mumus River caused society behavior along the river. Daily activity such as bath, washing and defecate at the river. Garbage, sediment, domestic waste and flood are river problems should be solved. Purpose this research is make strategy of water pollution control in the Karang Mumus River. Method used observation in the field, interview to the society, industry, public activity along the river and government of environment department. Further create data using tool of Analysis Hierarchy Process (AHP) to get the strategy to control water pollution in the river. Actors have contribute pollution control are government, industry and society. Criteria to pollution control are society participation, low, human resources and sustainable. Alternative of pollution control are unit garbage storage; license loyalty for industry and waste; communal waste water installation; monitoring of water quality. Result for actor priority are government (0.4); Industry (0.4); Society (0.2). Result for priority criteria are society participation (0.338), low (0.288), human resources (0.205) and sustainable (0.169). Result for priority alternative are unit garbage storage (0.433); license loyalty for industry and waste (0.238); communal waste water installation (0.169); monitoring of water quality (0.161).

Controls for emissions of oxides of nitrogen were first required for gas turbines by the Los Angeles County Air Pollution Control District (LAAPCD) and the San Diego Air Pollution Control District (SDAPCD) in the early 1970’s. To achieve the necessary control, water was injected into the combustor flame zone to reduce flame temperature. The consequent reduction in NOx amounted to about forty percent when half as much water as fuel was injected into the reaction zone. The emissions level achieved was approximately 75 ppmvd (parts per million by volume dry) on oil fuel as required by SDAPCD Rule 68, and with the airflow of these MS5000 machines at about 950,000 lbm/hr, this corresponded to 140 lbm/hr of NO2 when expressed at 15% O2 as required by LAAPCD Rule 67. Hilt and Waslo, (Ref. 1) and Hilt, et al (Ref. 2, 3) provide summary discussions of this work.

Information on legislative and administrative water pollution control systems in ten Asian countries was collected through direct contact or mail correspondence with relevant government officials or engineers. Effluent concentration control is the most common system to control water pollution. Effluent standard values in the countries examined are compiled and the structural differences of the effluent control systems are discussed. Japan has relatively lenient standards, but because of its supporting measures for the implementation of the effluent standard system it has achieved satisfactory water pollution control.

Reverse osmosis is a continuous, reliable, demineralization and concentration process that requires very little operating attention. The key component is a semipermeable membrane that passes water but retains all suspended matter and most of the dissolved salts and organic substances in water. Reverse osmosis is being applied to high-purity water production, waste-stream concentration for pollution control, water reclamation, and food and pharmaceutical processing. It offers significant advantages over some other desalination techniques.
