Remediation Engineering by Suthan Suthersan

Description: About this productProduct InformationIn this text the author provides practical information on the actual design of systems for remediation of hazardous waste. It covers a wide range of forms of hazardous waste remediation and draws upon the experience of the remediation engineering programme of an environmental consulting company, Geraghty & Miller. Rules of thumb for dealing with emerging remediation technologies are offered as well as lists of regulatory requirements within Europe and the Pacific Rim.Product IdentifiersPublisherCRC Press LLCISBN-101566701376ISBN-139781566701372eBay Product ID (ePID)503619Product Key FeaturesAuthorJeff Mcdonough, Suthan S.
