Add to basketControl pathogen exposure through unified environmental engineering interventions Environmental engineers and public health professionals require systematic approaches to pathogen control across air, water, dust, and soil. Environmental Engineering for Pathogen Control delivers a unified framework for mitigating infectious diseases through environmental interventions. Written by Charles N. Haas, a National Academy of Engineering member and distinguished fellow of the International Water Association, this book grounds the emerging intersection of environmental engineering and public health. The text covers dispersion and transmission of environmental pathogens, disinfection interventions, drinking water contamination, aerosol transmission of disease, and bioterrorist attack response. Detailed coverage addresses air transmission and movement in indoor environments, viability and growth-decay dynamics of microbes in environmental media, and quantitative microbial risk assessment methodologies. Case studies demonstrate practical risk assessment applications across diverse contamination scenarios. Readers will also find: Systematic methods for analyzing pathogen dispersion across environmental media including air, water, dust, and soil transmission pathwaysQuantitative frameworks for assessing microbial viability, growth rates, and decay patterns in diverse environmental conditions and mediaEngineering approaches to disinfection interventions with detailed coverage of drinking water treatment and contamination response protocolsIndoor air quality analysis techniques addressing aerosol transmission mechanics and ventilation strategies for pathogen control measuresRisk assessment case studies with step-by-step guidance for evaluating exposure scenarios and determining appropriate intervention strategies Environmental Engineering for Pathogen Control serves advanced environmental engineering students, public health professionals, and practitioners in environmental health and industrial hygiene. This authoritative resource equips readers with the quantitative tools and engineering frameworks needed to reduce human exposure to pathogens and control associated health risks.
