Consolidates information and technical calculations for a wide
variety of environmental factors

Operating a business facility of any size, especially a
manufacturing location, requires environmental permits from a
number of governmental regulatory agencies responsible for
protecting human health and the environment. Environmental
Calculations: A Multimedia Approach provides an
essential, one-stop reference for the necessary technical
calculations to obtain a broad range of such permits. Along with
clear, concise, and factual explanations, the text also includes
relevant equations, examples, and case studies to support and
clarify the calculations.

Filled with the rich experience from the author's years of work
in environmental permitting, the coverage features:

* An introduction to the major concepts and practice in the
permitting process

* Key concepts in environmental chemistry such as the ideal gas
law, vapor pressure, reaction stoichiometry, and heat effects

* Air pollution control

* Water/wastewater

* Solid/hazardous waste

* Noise generation, propagation, and control

* Radiation/radioactive decay

An all-around guide for environmental permitting in many
contexts, Environmental Calculations: A Multimedia Approach
is a must-have for anybody concerned with environmental assessment
and compliance, as well as those reviewing, issuing, and monitoring
environmental permits.
