The Environmental and climatic issues varies from continent to
continent and is unique to Asia. Understanding the issues does need
lot of research and study material which students may not be able
to gather due to shortage of time and resources. Hence an effort is
made by authors gathering there experience and academic input from
renowned universities of world. Climate change is real and coping
with it is major concern in coming days. Most of the books written
and sold in the past need updating and customizing. The general
description of climate change and world will not help the
professionals and students. It needs to seen area wise as a
professional will work in specific geographic area. Hence an effort
is made to collect data from Asia which host most populated
countries along with ecological hot spots.
This work is intended as a textbook on the theory and practice of
sustainable air pollution management. The book discusses the
fundamental aspects of traditional air pollution topics as well as
some more advanced topics (such as atmospheric brown cloud,
trans-boundary movement of air pollutants, air transportation of
radioactive material, biological air pollutants, etc.). Though much
has been written about theory of Air Pollution Management, it is
still not practiced in society for a variety of reasons. Having
worked at the grass roots level and travelled extensively, the
authors have captured useful, cost-effective and successfully
implemented practices with their cameras and notebooks. The
non-technical issues that are often seen as a hindrance to adopting
sustainable solutions due to political, legal and social factors
are also addressed to enable readers to understand a different
dimension of social problems. Topics covered include selecting a
separation process, process description, materials selection logic,
implementation etc. Theory, design and operation specifications are
also included for each air pollution management option. The book is
an excellent guide for those readers looking to understand and
practice sustainable air pollution management. Readers also learn
how energy-efficient and cost-effective methods can be successfully
used to reduce the production of contaminants, providing cleaner
air.
