Book Effect Directed Analysis of Complex Environmental Contamination

Download or read book Effect Directed Analysis of Complex Environmental Contamination written by Werner Brack and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-04-15 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today more than 5 million chemicals are known and roughly 100,000 of them are frequently used, with both numbers rising. Many of these chemicals are ultimately released into the environment and may cause adverse effects to ecosystems and human health. Effect-directed analysis (EDA) is a promising tool for identifying predominant toxicants in complex, mostly environmental mixtures combining effect testing, fractionation and chemical analysis. In the present book leading experts in the field provide an overview of relevant approaches and tools used in EDA. This includes diagnostic biological tools, separation techniques and advanced analytical and computer tools for toxicant identification and structure elucidation. Examples of the successful application of EDA are discussed such as the identification of mutagens in airborne particles and sediments, of endocrine disruptors in aquatic ecosystems and of major toxicants in pulp and paper mill effluents. This book is a valuable, comprehensive and interdisciplinary source of information for environmental scientists and environmental agencies dealing with the analysis, monitoring and assessment of environmental contamination.

Book National Assessment of the Pulp and Paper Environmental Effects Monitoring Data

Download or read book National Assessment of the Pulp and Paper Environmental Effects Monitoring Data written by Richard B. Lowell and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Canada, all pulp & paper mills in Canada are required to conduct environmental effects monitoring (EEM) under the Fisheries Act in order to determine if there were environmental concerns related to fish, fish habitat, or utilization of the fisheries resource. Since 1992, mills have completed two cycles of this monitoring program. This report assesses EEM data in cycle 2 in order to determine the type & magnitude of effects occurring on fish & benthic invertebrate communities on a national scale. Some comparisons are made with data from cycle 1, which was primarily used as a baseline, to indicate trends in the environment over the past decade. After an introduction on the national EEM program and the rationale for this study, chapter 2 presents a historical review of the effects of pulp & paper mill effluents with respect to EEM endpoints. Chapter 3 outlines methodologies used for data analysis. Chapters 4 & 5 describe results of benthic community & fish surveys respectively. Chapter 6 shows the results of a combined analysis of fish population survey & benthic invertebrate community survey endpoints. Chapter 7 highlights the results of an analysis of the data on sublethal toxicity. The final chapter provides an overall summary of report conclusions, recommendations, and next steps for analysis.

Book Biological Wastewater Treatment and Resource Recovery

Download or read book Biological Wastewater Treatment and Resource Recovery written by Robina Farooq and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biological treatment of wastewater is a low-cost solution for remediation of wastewater. This book focuses on the bioremediation of wastewater, its management, monitoring, role of biofilms on wastewater treatment and energy recovery. It emphasizes on organic, inorganic and micropollutants entering into the environment after conventional wastewater treatment facilities of industrial, agricultural and domestic wastewaters. The occurrence of persistent pollutants poses deleterious effects on human and environmental health. Simple solution for recovery of energy as well as water during biological treatment of wastewater is a viable option. This book provides necessary knowledge and experimental studies on emerging bioremediation processes for reducing water, air and soil pollution.

Book Tackling Climate Change Through Livestock

Download or read book Tackling Climate Change Through Livestock written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2013 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greenhouse gas emissions by the livestock sector could be cut by as much as 30 percent through the wider use of existing best practices and technologies. FAO conducted a detailed analysis of GHG emissions at multiple stages of various livestock supply chains, including the production and transport of animal feed, on-farm energy use, emissions from animal digestion and manure decay, as well as the post-slaughter transport, refrigeration and packaging of animal products. This report represents the most comprehensive estimate made to-date of livestocks contribution to global warming as well as the sectors potential to help tackle the problem. This publication is aimed at professionals in food and agriculture as well as policy makers.

Book The Water Footprint Assessment Manual

Download or read book The Water Footprint Assessment Manual written by Maite M. Aldaya and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People use lots of water for drinking, cooking and washing, but significantly more for producing things such as food, paper and cotton clothes. The water footprint is an indicator of water use that looks at both direct and indirect water use of a consumer or producer. Indirect use refers to the 'virtual water' embedded in tradable goods and commodities, such as cereals, sugar or cotton. The water footprint of an individual, community or business is defined as the total volume of freshwater that is used to produce the goods and services consumed by the individual or community or produced by the business. This book offers a complete and up-to-date overview of the global standard on water footprint assessment as developed by the Water Footprint Network. More specifically it: o Provides a comprehensive set of methods for water footprint assessment o Shows how water footprints can be calculated for individual processes and products, as well as for consumers, nations and businesses o Contains detailed worked examples of how to calculate green, blue and grey water footprints o Describes how to assess the sustainability of the aggregated water footprint within a river basin or the water footprint of a specific product o Includes an extensive library of possible measures that can contribute to water footprint reduction
