Assessment and Control of VOC Emissions from Waste Treatment and Disposal Facilities
(Assessment and Control of VOC Emissions from Waste Treatm...)
Assessment and Control of VOC Emissions from Waste Treatment and Disposal Facilities Thomas T. Shen, Ph.D., Charles Schmidt, Ph.D., and Thomas Card The complications surrounding Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions have emerged as a matter of increasing environmental attention and concern, due largely to the huge quantities involved, their known toxicity, and their suspected carcinogenicity. Assessment and Control of VOC Emissions from Waste Treatment and Disposal Facilities is the first book to both thoroughly explore the topic and present the entire range of environmentally and economically viable solutions. The authors address the most recent developments, the newest applications, and the latest methodological advances in the field. The book includes sections 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 Conservation and 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 for assessing VOC emission rates VOC pathway analyses toxicity, exposure, and basic information about conducting health risk 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 and Disposal Facilities is ideal as both a reference and a training text for regulatory engineers, facility environmental managers, and anyone involved in atmospheric sciences. This field-guide and teaching text is invaluable to a wide cross-section of professionals, educators, and students in the chemical, petroleum, and environmental regulatory communities.
