Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book presents applications of chemistry specific to topics, issues, and problems relevant to environmental engineering. It is the companion volume of Chemistry for Environmental Engineering. Considerable effort has been made to clarify and explain the subjects of air and water quality, including a section on colloids. Other topics include hazardous materials, radiation hazards and sources, toxicology and chemical hygiene, and a final chapter devoted to environmental issues of contemporary interest and importance. |
