This book is meant to be an introductory text on the Fundamentals of Environmental Science and Engineering.
Principles of Environmental Science and Technology
There is special emphasis on modelling and integrated assessment. This book is different because it stresses the societal, cultural and historical dimensions of environmental problems.
Thoroughly revised and up-dated edition of a highly successful textbook.
Introduction to Environmental Science and Technology
The concept of mass balance is carried throughout the text as a tool for problem solving. The book includes more extensive coverage of chemistry, biology, and hydrology than other books in this field.
This is a much revised and expanded version of the author's previous book Principles of Environmental Science (1988), also published by Elsevier.
The book features an all-encompassing approach: the fundamental science of phosphorus (chemistry, geochemistry, mineralogy, biology), key aspects of its environmental behaviour and mobility, industrial applications (treatment, removal, ...
Primarily intended as a text for undergraduate students of engineering for their core course in environmental studies, this book gives a clear introduction to the fundamental principles of ecology and environmental science and aptly ...
Moore and Pearson (1981) enumerate nine such mechanisms. Table 2.18 lists these reaction mechanisms, the rate expressions, and some examples from environmental engineering. An aspect of homogeneous catalysis that we have not ...
New to this Edition: - Expansion upon the environmental narrative with coverage of contemporary topics such as carbon, lifetime performance and rating schemes - Additional figures, images and sub-topics in chapters - An updated section on ...
