Increasing demand on industrial capacity has, as an unintended
consequence, produced an accompanying increase in harmful and
hazardous wastes. Derived from the second edition of the popular
Handbook of Industrial and Hazardous Wastes Treatment, Hazardous
Industrial Waste Treatment outlines the fundamentals and latest
developments in hazardous waste treatment in various process
industries, such as metal finishing, photographic processing, wood
treatment, and explosives. Comprehensive in scope, the book
provides information that is directly applicable to daily waste
management problems throughout the industry. The book contains
in-depth discussions of environmental pollution sources, waste
characteristics, control technologies, management strategies,
facility innovations, process alternatives, costs, case histories,
effluent standards, and future trends for the process industry. It
includes extensive bibliographies for each type of industrial
process waste treatment or practice, invaluable information to
anyone who needs to trace, follow, duplicate, or improve on a
specific process waste treatment practice. A quick scan of the
chapters and contributors reveals the depth and breadth of the
book's coverage. Hazardous Industrial Waste Treatment provides
technical and economical information on how to develop the most
feasible total environmental control program that can benefit both
industry and local municipalities.
Presenting effective, practicable strategies modeled from
ultramodern technologies and framed by the critical insights of 78
field experts, this vastly expanded Second Edition offers 32
chapters of industry- and waste-specific analyses and treatment
methods for industrial and hazardous waste materials-from explosive
wastes to landfill leachate to wastes produced by the
pharmaceutical and food industries. Key additional chapters cover
means of monitoring waste on site, pollution prevention, and site
remediation. Including a timely evaluation of the role of
biotechnology in contemporary industrial waste management, the
Handbook reveals sound approaches and sophisticated technologies
for treating -textile, rubber, and timber wastes -dairy, meat, and
seafood industry wastes -bakery and soft drink wastes -palm and
olive oil wastes -pesticide and livestock wastes -pulp and paper
wastes -phosphate wastes -detergent wastes -photographic wastes
-refinery and metal plating wastes -power industry wastes This
state-of-the-art Second Edition is required reading for pollution
control, environmental, chemical, civil, sanitary, and industrial
engineers; environmental scientists; regulatory health officials;
and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these
disciplines.
Hazardous Industrial Waste Treatment provides technical and
economical information on how to develop the most feasible total
environmental control program that can benefit both industry and
local municipalities.
Many standard industrial waste treatment texts sufficiently address
a few major technologies for conventional in-plant environmental
control strategies in the food industry. But none explore the
complete range of technologies with a focus on new developments in
innovative and alternative technology, design criteria, effluent
standards, managerial decision methodology, and regional and global
environmental conservation specific to the food industry. Until
now. Waste Treatment in the Food Processing Industry provides
in-depth coverage of environmental pollution sources, waste
characteristics, control technologies, management strategies,
facility innovations, process alternatives, costs, case histories,
effluent standards, and future trends. It delineates methodologies,
technologies, and the regional and global effects of important
pollution control practices. The book highlights major food
processing plants or installations that have significant effects on
the environment. Since the areas of food industry waste treatment
are broad, no one can claim to be an expert in all of them.
Reflecting this, the editors recruited collective contributions
from specialists in their respective topics, rather than relying on
a single author's expertise. The topics covered include dairies,
seafood processing plants, olive oil manufacturing factories,
potato processing plants, soft drink production plants, bakeries,
and various other food processing facilities. Professors, students,
and researchers in the environmental, civil, chemical, sanitary,
mechanical, and public health engineering and science fields will
find valuable educational materials in this book. The extensive
bibliographies for each type of food waste treatment or practice
will be invaluable to environmental managers, or researchers who
need to trace, follow, duplicate, or improve on a specific food
waste treatment practice. Comprehensive in scope, the book provides
