Historically, development of civilization has caused peturbation of much of the earth's ecosystem, resulting in pollution of air, land and water. In this case, pollution is defined as the introduction into the land, water and air systems of a chemical not indigenous to these systems. Environmental Technology Handbook: 2nd Edition discusses issues which permeate everyday life, especially the lives of workers in various occupations where hazards can result from exposure to many external influences. It is by discussing these

issues that the author seeks to stimulate debate and offer solutions to the growing threat to the environment and ultimately to human life. This book addresses issues such as resources and resource utilization, ecosystems, land management,

chemical waste management and biodegradation of waste. Key Features:

the first text to address the relationship between energy utilization and environmental impacts

clear and succinct discussions with complete up-to-date references

self-review questions at the end of each chapter

an excellent desk reference for practising engineers and government regulators
