This new textbook is the first of its kind to completely satisfy the needs of both environmental engineering and environment in the context of sustainable development, is unique to an engineering textbook.
Divided into four convenient parts, this book covers:
1. Essential scientific, ecological and legal backgrounds
2. Polluted enviornments: water, air and soil
3. Environment engineering technologies
4. Environment management
Without compromising the solid engineering content, Gerard Kiely has introducted a range of relevant related topics which include:
1. Ecology and microbiology
2. Hydrology and groundwater
3. Farm waste and agricultural pollution
4. Noise and air pollution
