Third Edition
By
Martin B. Hocking, Department of Chemistry, University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
Description
The Handbook of Chemical Technology and Pollution Control (3rd Edition) provides a detailed review of the chemistry and operating
conditions of many of the present large-scale chemical processes important to our economy and high standards of living. The processes
that could lead to emissions affecting our air, soil, and water are considered, together with ways in which it may be possible to reduce
or eliminate these pollutants. Focusing on cleaner production concepts without neglecting 'end of pipe' measures. With an increase in
the awareness of corporate and social responsibility among business and industry leaders, the pressure to reduce harmful emissions and
the desire to increase efficiencies and energy utilization, this book provides an essential resource. Suitable for researchers, practitioners
and postgraduate students in the fields of chemical and biochemical engineering and environmental science, as well as government monitoring
and regulatory agencies and industry leaders who want to stay one step ahead, this book will be a valuable addition to any library.
Audience
Researchers, practitioners and postgraduate students in the fields of chemical and biochemical engineering, environmental science, government monitoring and regulatory affairs.
