This is a major new handbook that covers hundreds of subjects that
cross numerous industry sectors; however, the handbook is heavily
slanted to oil and gas environmental management, control and
pollution prevention and energy efficient practices. Multi-media
pollution technologies are covered : air, water, solid waste,
energy. Students, technicians, practicing engineers, environmental
engineers, environmental managers, chemical engineers, petroleum
engineers, and environmental attorneys are all professionals who
will benefit from this major new reference source. The handbook is
organized in three parts. Part A provides an extensive compilation
of abbreviations and concise glossary of pollution control and
engineering terminology. More than 400 terms are defined. The
section is intended to provide a simple look-up guide to confusing
terminology used in the regulatory field, as well as industry
jargon. Cross referencing between related definitions and acronyms
are provided to assist the user. Part B provides physical
properties and chemical safety information. This part is not
intended to be exhaustive; however it does provide supplemental
information that is useful to a number of the subject entries
covered in the main body of the handbook. Part C is the Macropedia
of Subjects. The part is organized as alphabetical subject entries
for a wide range of pollution controls, technologies, pollution
prevention practices and tools, computational methods for preparing
emission estimates and emission inventories and much more. More
than 100 articles have been prepared by the author, providing a
concise overview of each subject, supplemented by sample
calculation methods and examples where appropriate, and references.
Subjects included are organized and presented in a macropedia
format to assist a user in gaining an overview of the subject,
guidance on performing certain calculations or estimates as in
cases pertinent to preliminary sizing and selection of pollution
controls or in preparing emissions inventories for reporting
purposes, and recommended references materials and web sites for
more in-depth information, data or computational tools. Each
subject entry provides a working overview of the technology,
practice, piece of equipment, regulation, or other relevant issue
as it pertains to pollution control and management. Cross
referencing between related subjects is included to assist the
reader to gain as much of a practical level of knowledge.
