This book discusses the practical aspects of environmental
technology organized into eight chapters relating to unit
operations as follows:
1. Biological Technology
2. Chemical Technology
3. Containment and Barrier Technology
4. Immobilization Technology
5. Membrane Technology
6. Physical Technology
7. Radiation and Electrical Technology
8. Thermal Destruction Technology
Traditional technologies have been included, as well as those that
can be considered innovative, and emerging. The traditional
approaches have been the most successful, as contractors are
careful about bidding on some of the newer technologies. However,
as regulatory requirements increase, markets will open for the
innovative and emerging processes. There will be increasing
pressure to break down complex waste streams, with each subsequent
stream demanding separate treatment. In addition, a number of
technologies have been developed by combining processes directly,
or in a treatment train, and these developments are expected to
assume increasing importance. However, such concerns as
uncertainties due to liability, regulatory approval, price
competition, and client approval have limited the application of
some of these newer technologies.
