Industry and Environment

About this book

Industry has played a great role in shaping the modern civilization. However, industry is also one of the biggest offenders in environmental degradation. A Natural level conference on Industry and Environment was organized at Y.C. College of Science, Karad during Dec. 28-30, 1999. The book is a collection of selected eighty three papers presented in the conference and cover a wide range of topics likeā€”Environmental Impact Assessment, ISO 14000, Wastewater treatment, Solid waste management, Vermicomposting of solid wastes, Air pollution, Climate change, Impact of pollution on aquatic ecosystems, Impact of pollution on soils, Wastewater irrigation, Use of aquatic weeds in wastewater treatment, Noise pollution, Social and economic effects of industrialization, Environmental law, Wastewater recycling and reuse, Toxic effects of industrial pollutants, Groundwater pollution, Impact of industrial pollution on crops. The book shall find users in large number of organizations like Life and Environmental Science Departments of Colleges and Universities, Chemistry and Environmental Engineering Departments, Pollution Control Boards, Industries, Environmental Consultants, NGOs etc.
