Pollution and the Atmosphere: Designs for Reduced Emissions
Editat de Marco Ragazzien Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 ian 2017
This new compendium volume examines the significant impact of air quality on human health. Assessing air pollution in complex morphologies has become an important issue in order to implement mitigation measures and limit emissions from the most relevant sources, such as waste incineration, traffic emissions, emissions from fuel and electricity production, and household emissions. These pollutants result in adverse health effects, material damage, damage to ecosystems, and global climate change. The book looks at these issues and is divided into several sections, covering air pollution and where we came from and where we’re headed
- waste incineration and its impact on air quality
- air pollution vehicle and transportation emissions
- emissions from fuel and electricity production

Descriere
This title includes a number of Open Access chapters.
This new compendium volume examines the significant impact of air quality on human health. Assessing air pollution in complex morphologies has become an important issue in order to implement mitigation measures and limit emissions from the most relevant sources, such as waste incineration, traffic emissions, emissions from fuel and electricity production, and household emissions. These pollutants result in adverse health effects, material damage, damage to ecosystems, and global climate change. The chapters in the book contain recent research looking at the two major components of air pollution: air pollution control and air-quality engineering.
