Environmental Engineering Science

This text provides a thorough and balanced introduction to water quality engineering, air quality engineering, and hazardous waste management. The text develops the scientific principles needed to understand environmental engineering, and then brings those principles to life through application to the real-world solutions of environmental problems.

Suitable for a junior/senior level course in environmental engineering, but is also appropriate for graduate students who lack a solid background in environmental engineering.

Dieses Lehrbuch entwickelt die Grundprinzipien der Umwelttechnik: Wasser- und Abwasserbehandlung, Luftreinhaltung und die Entsorgung von Gefahrstoffen werden ausgewogen dargestellt und anhand zahlreicher realitätsnaher Beispiele in die Praxis umgesetzt. Die Studenten lernen, wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse im ingenieurtechnischen Alltag sinnvoll anzuwenden. (12/00) FUNDAMENTALS.
