The book offers two sectionsone on assessment and the following on remediationwhile exploring topics crucial to the study of environmental science and engineering at the senior or master's level. This latest edition includes a new emphasis on the chemistry of emerging contaminants, including perfluorinated compounds, 1,4-dioxane, methyl tert-butyl ether, and personal care products. It also offers updated data on contaminant Threshold Limit Value, Reference Dose, Slope Factor, Reference Concentration, and Inhalation Unit Risk. New remediation chapters also provide many design problems, incorporating economic analyses and the selection of various design alternatives. Approximately 200 new end-of-chapter problemswith solutionshave been added as well. Readers will also find: A thorough introduction to hazardous wastes, including discussion of pre-regulatory disposal and hazardous waste legislationComprehensive discussions of common hazardous wastes, including their nomenclature, industrial uses, and disposal historiesIn-depth explorations of partitioning, sorption, and exchange at surfaces, as well as volatilization Extensive descriptions of the concepts of hazardous waste toxicology and quantitative toxicology Perfect for senior- and masters-level college courses in hazardous wastes in Environmental Science, Environmental Engineering, Civil Engineering, or Chemical Engineering programs, Hazardous Wastes: Assessment and Remediation will also earn a place in the libraries of professional environmental scientists and engineers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcronyms and Abbreviations xxi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Companion Website xxv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Introduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I Assessment 35\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Common Hazardous Wastes: Nomenclature, Industrial Uses, Disposal Histories 39\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Common Hazardous Wastes: Properties and Classification 121\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Source Analysis 161\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Partitioning, Sorption, and Exchange at Surfaces 191\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Volatilization 223\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Abiotic and Biotic Transformations: Parallel Pathways 241\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Contaminant Release and Transport from the Source 289\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Concepts of Hazardous Waste Toxicology 317\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Quantitative Toxicology 346\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Hazardous Waste Risk Assessment 366\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II Remediation and Treatment 385\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Approaches to Hazardous Waste Minimization, Remediation, Treatment, and Disposal 387\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Design of Sorption- and Partitioning-Based Treatment Processes 420\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Design of Volatilization-Based Treatment Processes 472\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Design of Abiotic Transformation-Based Treatment Processes 493\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 Design of Biotic Transformation-Based Treatment Processes 530\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Mitigation of Residuals 570\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix References 668\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 675\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley \u0026 Sons Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49407105139031,"sku":"9781119634065","price":125.06,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781119634065.jpg?v=1730498193","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/hazardous-wastes-9781119634065","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
