Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Large-format hardcover, xxii + 1431 pages, NOT ex-library. Shipping weight over 3kg. Missing the front blank endpaper. Erased pencil name on the title page; a short corner crease to several leaves. Else interior in nice shape, clean and bright, untanned, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Faint dusty marks on lower page edges externally. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This single-volume reference equips engineers with a systematic toolkit, connecting regulations and standards with detailed treatment technologies for managing interconnected pollution in air, water, land, and industrial processes. -- The book begins with foundational chapters on environmental laws, regulations, and impact assessment methods, including interaction matrices. It then details pollution prevention strategies for chemical manufacturing, emphasizing life cycle assessment and cleaner process engineering. Air quality management is covered extensively, from standards and atmospheric dispersion modeling to emission measurement and control technologies like electrostatic precipitators and biofiltration. A thorough section on wastewater treatment outlines the entire process train, from primary treatment like screening and sedimentation, to secondary biological processes such as activated sludge, and advanced methods for nutrient removal. The text explores groundwater contamination, covering aquifer flow principles and remediation technologies. Final sections manage solid and hazardous waste, discussing characterization, resource recovery, waste-to-energy incineration, risk assessment, and the treatment of radioactive waste. -- This handbook stands out for its holistic, systems-thinking approach, bridging engineering solutions with the socioeconomic drivers laid out in its analysis of population, energy, and resource depletion. Unlike narrower texts, it integrates the air, water, land, and energy nexus, establishing foundational principles that remain relevant for waste minimization and the design of cleaner technologies. Its rigorous treatment of cross-disciplinary methods - including life cycle assessment, risk assessment, and best management practices - provides an essential framework for practitioners, researchers, and advanced students. The book continues to inform policy discussions and curriculum development in environmental engineering worldwide.…
