306 pages. "Hazardous wastes are not a new problem; they have been a major environmental problem for centuries. This book approaches hazardous waste management from the perspectives of environmental engineering and health risk assessment. The author draws from his experience in both areas to present a unique approach to the challenge of hazardous wastes. The book is not only an excellent text for senior and graduate courses in hazardous wastes, but also a valuable resource to the practicing engineer, who is increasingly called upon to reduce or elimate the potential and actual risks posed by hundreds of thousands of chemicals being manufactured today." FINE HARDCOVER. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Many engineers, from the chemical and process industries, waste treatment system management and design to the clean-up of contaminated sites, are engaged in careers that address hazardous wastes. However, no single book is available that explains how to manage the risks of those wastes. At best it is dealt with in diverse sections of books on the general field of environmental engineering, and in various treatments of the subject of risk, statistics and hazard assessment.
This is a reference and text that blends together theoretical explanations, techniques and case study examples to complement practical knowledge. These include problems with solutions, case studies of current and landmark hazardous waste problems, and reference sections that will make certain that this text stays on the practicing engineer's bookshelf.
- Addresses a subject of theoretical and regulatory importance
- The only book to take this approach
- Includes textbook case studies and examples as well as practical advice
