This Handbook 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. SCREEN3 can be downloaded from a
Butterworth-Heinemann Web site.
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, and is linked to a free, downloadable EPA air dispersion
model that can be used to predict and assist in evaluating the
impact of pollutants on the environment and populated areas.
