Synopsis
Drawing from a variety of engineering and science disciplines, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the complex field of hazardous waste management. It is aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate engineering students taking a first course in the subject. The "Landmark Episodes" section provides readers with an historical understanding of the field of hazardous waste management. Divided into four main parts, the book covers: fundamentals, current management practices, treatment and disposal methods, and site remediation. Much of the book is devoted to treatment methods which give practical engineering examples of application of technology to hazardous waste management. The text also contains 100 worked examples and 300 problems to solve. Detailed case studies give students the necessary equations and design examples to evaluate the effectiveness of different treatment and contaminant technologies in addressing today's hazardous waste situation.

Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the complex, interdisciplinary field of hazardous waste management, with thoroughly updated information on the most current methods of treatment, disposal, and site remediation.
The management of hazardous waste has changed dramatically since the 1960's and continues to evolve as our knowledge of both the hazards and management methods grows. Since the last edition was published (1994), much of the emphasis has shifted: from site assessments to site remediation, from new facility siting to pollution prevention, and from a newly emerging market to a mature market. The new edition provides comprehensive coverage of these changes in the field.
