This timely text offers coverage of pollution prevention fundamentals, featuring examples and case studies drawn from the chemical process industries. Topics are presented on three different levels-macro, meso, and micro. The book's multifaceted approach provides a complete picture of current waste minimization theory and practice. Macroscale * Comprehensive analysis of the flow of materials in the United States, from natural resource extraction to consumer product disposal * Overview of waste generation and management for different pollutant types * Assessment of pollution prevention opportunities using industrial ecology and product life cycle frameworks Mesoscale * Detailed coverage of pollution prevention in chemical manufacturing processes * Waste audits, emission inventories, flow sheet analysis, and many other important tools * Waste reduction for unit operations, techniques for measuring economic benefits of pollution prevention, and more Microscale * Case studies of reaction pathway analysis and material design methods Complete with case studies that give the material a real-world edge, plus worked examples to reinforce learning, this text is valuable to both advanced students and practitioners of chemical and civil engineering.
