Advanced Physicochemical Treatment Technologies

In Advanced Physiochemical Treatment Technologies, leading pollution control educators and practicing professionals describe how various combinations of different cutting-edge process systems can be arranged to solve air, noise, and thermal pollution problems. Each chapter discusses in detail the three basic forms in which pollutants and waste are manifested: gas, solid, and liquid.

Detailed discussion of cutting-edge physicochemical treatment technologies Review of the performance, potential, and limitations of treatment technologies Extensive collection of detailed design examples and case histories Best Available Technologies (BAT) for physical, chemical, and mechanical treatment Up-to-date references, cost data, and design methods Suitable as an advanced level textbook and a comprehensive reference
