Contents:
1 Introduction 2 Chemistry 3 Materials and Energy Balances 4 Ecosystems 5 Risk Perception, Assessment, and Management 6 Hydrology 7 Geological and Soil Resources 8 Water Quality Management 9 Water Treatment 10 Wastewater Treatment 11 Air Pollution 12 Solid Waste Engineering 13 Hazardous Waste Management 14 Agricultural and the Environment 15 Noise Pollution 16 Ionizing Radiation Appendix A: Properties of Air, Water, and Selected Chemicals
Summary: Principles of Environmental Engineering and Science by Mackenzie Davis and Susan Masten is intended for a course in introductory environmental engineering for sophomore- or junior-level students. The emphasis of this new text is on engineering principles rather than on engineering design. The concept of mass balance is carried throughout the text as a tool for problem solving, and the text boasts extensive coverage of chemistry, biology, and hydrology than other books have. The chemistry review in Chapter 2 and coverage of ethics will aid students in better understanding the engineering topics presented in the book.
