商品簡介
Drawing on his 20 years as the regional solid and hazardous materials engineer for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, VanGuilder offers a textbook or tutorial introducing the technical field of hazardous waste management, and the myriad US and state hazardous waste regulations. The two cannot be separated, he says, because many of the regulations are written with prescribed treatment standards and in some cases prescribed treatment technologies. After tracing briefly the history of hazardous waste, he considers such topics as hazardous waste policy and regulatory requirements, hazardous waste site clean-up technologies, wastewater management, and hazardous waste record-keeping requirements. Chapter-end exercises are provided, half of which are answered in the back matter. Distributed in the US by International Publishers Marketing.
