About this book

A reference for technical personnel dealing with pollution control technologies and equipment, including major equipment and hardware for site remediation specialists, and technologies for site investigations, pollution control and pollution prevention. The author provides information for those concerned with meeting government regulations and with the economic considerations (such as fines for violations and cost-effective methods). He focuses on equipment selection, design and operation for environmental management and control purposes.
