Sewage Disposal And Air Pollution Engineering provides detailed description of the techniques used for the treatment of domestic and industrial wastewaters, thus exhaustively covering water pollution. The methods of safe disposal of solids wastes of a society, including the hazardous radioactive and Bio-medical wastes, have further been described, as to cover land pollution. The present status of the ambient air, description of the various air pollutants, and the technologies which are used to control the discharge of air pollutants into the environment, have also been discussed in detail, as to cover air pollution. Global environmental issues like ozone depletion, global warming and acid rains have also been discussed alongwith covering Noise pollution. Environmental impacts of Thermal power plants, mining and water resources projects have also been discussed in detail, as to cover environmental impact assessments. The text matter has further been supported by about 600 Objective Questions and Numerical Questions from various competitive exams, making the book highly useful for students.
