Sorbents Materials for Controlling Environmental Pollution
Current State and Trends
About this book
Sorbents Materials for Controlling Environmental Pollution: Current State and Trends presents data on current use and future trends regarding sorbent materials employed against soil, water, and air pollution. The book is organized first by use and research for a variety of geographic areas. It will then focus on different sorbent materials and their uses, followed by various pollutants and their management. Including updated and extensive data from an assortment of sources, the book is organized to be very accessible, including with an interactive table to help identify the results of appropriate sorbents for each environmental compartment.
The growing concern regarding soil, water and air pollution all over the world has implications for climate change and sustainability, making Sorbents Materials for Controlling Environmental Pollution: Current State and Trends an important reference for environmental scientists to identify tools for moving forward in solving these problems.
- Includes data and examples from various geographic locations worldwide
- Synthesizes data for a variety of sorbent material from different sources
- Presents data for various kinds of pollutants across environmental spheres, including soil, water, and air
- Utilizes an interactive table for quicker access to data and results
