This book was released on 2000-05-31 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efficient non-polluting use of resources by the chemical industries requires an integrated and cost effective approach that is both holistic and multimedia. Beneficial present and future resource use should be preserved with a focus on public health and environmental protection. These proceedings contain 59 papers selected both from the oral and poster presentations, representing the best contributions to a conference with the specific aim of evaluating technologies and sharing experiences for minimization and end of pipe treatment of wastes in the chemical/petrochemical industries. This distinctive multidimensional perspective is reflected in the topics covered: wastewater minimization and management; water and wastewater characterisation; physicochemical, aerobic, anaerobic and combined wastewater treatment processes; textile waste treatment; site restoration; and volatile organic compounds treatment. Attention is given to the interaction between source control and end of pipe treatment, where changes in the first often influence the performance of the second. Owing to increasingly stringent effluent requirements including toxicity limits and ecotoxicological concerns, source control is the preferred option for waste management. The opportunities for research and improvements in practical application, as well as the need of enhanced international cooperation between disciplines, are critical to addressing current multifaceted concerns and feature strongly in the high-quality work assembled here.

The final chapter provides remediation processes. - Presents the latest methods for treating, controlling, and eliminating pollutants from air, water, and land that are a byproduct of petroleum industry operations - Covers the environmental impact of the petroleum industry and its regulations, explaining protection options - Includes treatment methods for both air, water, and solid waste disposal - Discusses remediation processes, including natural processes, pump and treat, soil flushing, soil vapor extraction (SVE), bioremediation, and excavation
Download or read book Pollution Prevention through Process Integration written by Mahmoud M. El-Halwagi and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1997-08-19 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The environmental impact of industrial waste is one of the most serious challenges facing the chemical process industries. From a focus on end-of-pipe treatment in the 1970s, chemical manufacturers have increasinglyimplemented pollution prevention policies in which pollutants are mitigated at the source or separated and recovered and then reused or sold. This book is the first to present systematic techniques for cost-effective pollution prevention, altering what has been an art that depends on experience and subjective opinion into a science rooted in fundamental engineering principles and process integration. Step-by-step procedures are presented that are widely applicable to the chemical, petrochemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, food, and metals industries. Various levels of sophistication ranging from graphical methods to algebraic procedures and mathematical optimization, numerous applications and case studies, and integrated software for optimizing waste recovery systems make Pollution Prevention through Process Integration: Systematic Design Tools a must read for a wide spectrum of practicing engineers, environmental scientists, plant managers, advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers in the areas of pollution prevention andprocess integration. - Allows the reader to establish pollution-prevention targets for a process and then develop implementable, cost-effective solutions - Contains step-by-step procedures that can be applied to environmental problems in a wide variety of process industries - Integrates pollution prevention with other process objectives - Author is internationally recognized for pioneering work in developing mass integration science and technology

Download or read book Environmental Bioengineering written by Lawrence K. Wang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-06-25 with total page 884 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past 30 years have seen the emergence of a growing desire worldwide that positive actions be taken to restore and protect the environment from the degrading effects of all forms of pollution – air, water, soil, and noise. Since pollution is a direct or indirect consequence of waste production, the seemingly idealistic demand for “zero discharge” can be construed as an unrealistic demand for zero waste. However, as long as waste continues to exist, we can only attempt to abate the subsequent pollution by converting it to a less noxious form. Three major questions usually arise when a particular type of pollution has been identi ed: (1) How serious is the pollution? (2) Is the technology to abate it available? and (3) Do the costs of abatement justify the degree of abatement achieved? This book is one of the volumes of the Handbook of Environmental Engineering series. The principal intention of this series is to help readers formulate answers to the above three questions. The traditional approach of applying tried-and-true solutions to speci c pollution problems has been a major contributing factor to the success of environmental engineering, and has accounted in large measure for the establishment of a “methodology of pollution control. ” However, the realization of the ever-increasing complexity and interrelated nature of current environmental problems renders it imperative that intelligent planning of pollution abatement systems be undertaken.
