Book synopsis

Environmental Pollution and Public Health: Case Studies on Air, Water and Soil from an Interdisciplinary Perspective covers a broad range of challenges around the pollution of air, soil, and water. The book focuses on providing detailed case studies showing real-world applications of the latest technologies in an interdisciplinary context. It is structured into sections devoted to pollution of different media (air, land, water) beginning with the environment and its nexus with public health, which highlights the health of our environment can invariably influence our public health. Following this, atmospheric pollution is addressed, identifying various air pollutants, methods for identification, impact on the environment and health, and technologies mitigate these impacts. The third section is devoted to liquid waste management, focusing on wastewater and treatment options including emerging technologies compared to existing options. This section will also consider treatment options around the world from low-, middle- and high- income countries through global case studies. The last media section on soil pollution and solid waste deals with solid waste management, soil and sediment pollution assessment, and remediation studies. The remediation section will focus on effective and innovative case studies of plant-, microorganism- and biochar-based remediation. The book finishes with case studies and information on regulatory frameworks for environmental pollution, for the consideration of those wanting to implement the remediation techniques covered. Environmental Pollution and Public Health is a necessary read for postgraduates, academics, professionals and researchers in environmental science, soil science, environmental health, and waste management who need the latest sustainable remediation practices and case studies detailing efficacy of these techniques. Offers a broad overview of the environmental and practical aspects of pollution, pollution control measures, and environmental impact assessment Focuses on providing detailed, global case studies with an emphasis on cost, efficiency, and sustainability of the techniques for treating wastewater, contaminated soils, and solid waste Provides theoretical and technical information that will assist professionals and practitioners to address current challenges stemming from environmental pollution
