Description

Assessment and Control of VOC Emissions from Waste Treatment andDisposal Facilities Thomas T.

Shen, Ph.D., Charles Schmidt, Ph.D.,and Thomas Card The complications surrounding Volatile OrganicCompound (VOC) emissions have emerged as a matter of increasingenvironmental attention and concern, due largely to the hugequantities involved, their known toxicity, and their suspectedcarcinogenicity.

Assessment and Control of VOC Emissions from WasteTreatment and Disposal Facilities is the first book to boththoroughly explore the topic and present the entire range ofenvironmentally and economically viable solutions.

The authorsaddress the most recent developments, the newest applications, andthe latest methodological advances in the field.

The book includessections on: * waste characterizations, such as vapor pressure, solubility,molecular weights, and more * emission mechanisms including volatilization, hydrolysis,photodecomposition, biodegradation, and incineration * various types of VOC emission sources * the latest regulatory information on The Resource Conservationand Recovery Act (RCRA), The Comprehensive Environmental Response,Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), and the Clean Air Act(CAA) * the entire range of measuring and monitoring approaches forassessing VOC emission rates * VOC pathway analyses * toxicity, exposure, and basic information about conducting healthrisk assessments * all available control technologies and their costs * elaborate, mathematical models and real-life case studies Assessment and Control of VOC Emissions from Waste Treatment andDisposal Facilities is ideal as both a reference and a trainingtext for regulatory engineers, facility environmental managers, andanyone involved in atmospheric sciences.

This field-guide andteaching text is invaluable to a wide cross-section ofprofessionals, educators, and students in the chemical, petroleum,and environmental regulatory communities.
