About this book
Environmental Science and Engineering: Selected Topics is a compendium of knowledge concerning Environmental issues from several experts who are associated with prestigious institutes in India, Viz., IITs, CSIR, NITS, Central University, and Pollution Control Board. This book endeavors to explore various important topics of immediate concern to all our stake holders, especially students, researchers, practitioners, teachers, NGOs etc. This book introduces the reader about various Indian researchers areas of the experts and considerable amount of useful data on India environmental condition. There are very few books available on India data. This book also includes the contribution from the Italians researchers and there approach of tackling the issues. Emphasis has been laid on environmental pollution and control and the editors feel that this book will be useful to all concern with Environmental and Ecology encompassing all the three components of Environmental, viz., Air, Water and Solid Waste besides EIAs, cleaner technology, problem associated with implementation including environmental education etc.
