The Handbook of Air Pollution Prevention and Control provides a concise overview of the latest technologies for managing industrial air pollution in petrochemical, oil and gas, and allied industries. Detailed material on equipment selection, sizing, and troubleshooting operations is provided along with practical design methodology. Unique to this volume are discussions and information on energy-efficient technologies and approaches to implementing environmental cost accounting measures.Included in the text are sidebar discussions, questions for thinking and discussing, recommended resources for the reader (including Web sites), and a comprehensive glossary.The Handbook of Air Pollution Prevention and Control also includes free access to US EPA's air dispersion model SCREEN3. Detailed examples on the application of this important software to analyzing air dispersion from industrial processes and point sources are provided in the Handbook, along with approaches to applying this important tool in developing approaches to pollution prevention and in selecting control technologies. By applying SCREEN3, along with the examples given in the Handbook, the user can: evaluate the impact of processes and operations to air quality, and apply the model to assess emergency scenarios to help in planning, to develop environmental impact assessments, to select pollution control technologies, and to develop strategies for pollution prevention. Two companion books by Cheremisinoff are available:Handbook of Water and Wastewater Treatment Technologies, and Handbook of Solid Waste Management and Waste Minimization Technologies. Uniquely combines prevention and control concepts while covering the practices and technologies that are applied to the prevention of air pollution in the chemicals manufacturing, oil and gas, iron and steel, and pharmaceutical industries, and to the cleaning and control of industrial air emissions. Provides a bridge for today's environmental manager by focusing on an integrated approach to managing air pollution problems within industrial operations. Shows you how to calculate financial returns from pollution prevention projects.

This book examines in detail the clinical implications of those diseases that either are primarily triggered by air pollution or represent direct consequences of air pollutants. The aim is to provide medical practitioners with practical solutions to issues in diagnosis and treatment while simultaneously furnishing other interested parties with crucial information on the field. The book introduces the concept that air pollution-related diseases constitute a new class of pathologies. A wide range of conditions mainly attributable to air pollution are discussed, covering different body systems and pollution impacts in subsets of the population. In addition to presenting state of the art overviews of clinical aspects, the book carefully examines the implications of current knowledge for social and public health strategies aimed at disease prevention and prophylaxis. The Clinical Handbook of Air Pollution-Related Diseases will greatly assist doctors and healthcare workers when dealing with the consequences of air pollution in their everyday practice and will provide researchers, industry, and policymakers with valuable facts and insights.

This book provides a strong interdisciplinary approach in presenting topics on Air Pollution by integrating chemistry, physics, meteorology, engineering, health effects, policy, and regulatory aspects. It addresses the requirements of undergraduate/graduate students in Science/Engineering opting Air Pollution courses at a basic level by dealing exhaustively the fundamental aspects of air pollution with suitable examples and worked out problems. Meteorological aspects of dispersion of air pollutants, modeling techniques for air quality assessment, prediction, health risks, up-to-date information on different air quality management approaches and regulatory preventive measures adopted by various countries are presented with supporting data. Present Global & National air pollution scenarios and latest developments in Preventive Measures for air pollution control, emissions inventory; Comparison with emission standards, assessment of emission flows and emission factors are presented with critical explanation. To provide technological perspectives for undergraduate /graduate Engineering students, the scientific and engineering aspects of air pollution monitoring, assessment predictive modelling, air pollution control technologies, air pollution from automobiles noise pollution and methodologies for frequently used in Air Permit Applications-Screening Techniques are discussed with applications which will expose the students to various software programs used in this area. The specialty of this book is that it extensively deals on various aspects of air pollution, providing up-to-date information on global air pollution trends, preventive measures adopted by different countries, latest modeling techniques for air quality assessment/prediction/management and state of art air pollution control technologies with suitable examples, illustrations and worked out problems. A Stronger systems approach is adopted in presenting the nature of air pollutants, their dispersion under different meteorological conditions, associated human health Risks, measures, models, and control technologies of air pollution at scale - starting at the individual/niche level and expanding to local /regional /global scale.

Once pollutants are released into the atmosphere, they cannot be removed easily nor can the reaction with atmospheric constituents be ceased. However, through enhancing our understanding of control technology, further addition of pollution can be forestalled. Through better understanding of innovations in the field of air pollutant control technology and modelling, better cost-effective control equipment can be designed to achieve a clean biosphere for sustainable life in the near future. Global Perspectives on Air Pollution Prevention and Control System Design is a pivotal reference source that provides vital research on the understanding of the basic concepts of air pollution, modeling concepts, development of various models for source-specific pollutants, and dispersion. While highlighting topics such as climate change, fossil fuels, and motor vehicle emissions, this publication explores the links between the global impact on climate change and modeling concepts of indoor air pollutants. This book is ideally designed for professors, students, researchers, environmental agencies, environmentalists, policymakers, and government officials, seeking current research on future solutions in critical fields of air pollution.
