Formally established by the EPA nearly 15 years ago, the concept of
green chemistry is beginning to come of age. Although several books
cover green chemistry and chemical engineering, none of them
transfer green principles to science and technology in general and
their impact on the future. Defining industrial ecology,
Environmental Science and Technology: A Sustainable Approach to
Green Science and Technology provides a general overview of green
science and technology and their essential role in ensuring
environmental sustainability. Written by a leading expert, the book
provides the essential background for understanding green science
and technology and how they relate to sustainability. In addition
to the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere, and biosphere
traditionally covered in environmental science books, this book is
unique in recognizing the anthrosphere as a distinct sphere of the
environment. The author explains how the anthrosphere can be
designed and operated in a manner that does not degrade
environmental quality and, in most favorable circumstances, may
even enhance it. With the current emphasis shifting from
end-of-pipe solutions to pollution prevention and control of
resource consumption, green principles are increasingly moving into
the mainstream. This book provides the foundation not only for
understanding green science and technology, but also for taking its
application to the next level.
