The issue of aircraft air quality is attracting considerable
attention of late, as access to public air travel has expanded
exponentially. Aircrew and passengers are increasingly concerned
about operating and service decisions that could affect their
health, comfort, and safety. The editor of this volume invited a
wide range of experts to provide an in-depth treatment of virtually
all aspects of aircraft cabin air quality. The topics are covered
at a level comprehensible to all who fly as well as being of
sufficient depth to be informative to decision makers concerned
with purchase, design, operation, and servicing of passenger
aircraft.
Topics are grouped under: Control of Aircraft Cabin Air Quality;
Possible Effects of Low Humidity, Decreased Outside Air Flows; and
Effects of Some Aircraft Malfunctions on Cabin Air Quality. The
volume concludes with Air Quality Systems for Related Enclosed
Spaces, in which chapters cover air quality in buildings, ships,
submarines, and spacecraft, which provide novel approaches
potentially applicable to aircraft.

The Handbook of Chemical Technology and Pollution Control (3rd
Edition) provides a detailed review of the chemistry and operating
conditions of many of the present large-scale chemical processes
important to our economy and high standards of living. The
processes that could lead to emissions affecting our air, soil, and
water are considered, together with ways in which it may be
possible to reduce or eliminate these pollutants. Focusing on
cleaner production concepts without neglecting 'end of pipe'
measures. With an increase in the awareness of corporate and social
responsibility among business and industry leaders, the pressure to
reduce harmful emissions and the desire to increase efficiencies
and energy utilization, this book provides an essential resource.
Suitable for researchers, practitioners and postgraduate students
in the fields of chemical and biochemical engineering and
environmental science, as well as government monitoring and
regulatory agencies and industry leaders who want to stay one step
ahead, this book will be a valuable addition to any library.
