内容简介 在线阅读本书
Research has shown that inhaling fine particles is a greater health risk than breathing larger particles. Title is "very timely...needed NOW," according to one reviewer Covers a "controversial" but important topic, for which there is a lack of literature and hence guidance for those professionals affected by it Covers legislative background and gives insight into regulatory and technical matters such as measurement and control of fine particle emissions Combines the practical, theoretical, and regulatory areas of fine particulate monitoring, with "reference to the regulated community" Written by a recognized authority with over 30 years of pollution control experience
作者简介 John D. McKenna, PhD, is the President and CEO of ETS, Inc. He has more than thirty years of experience working in the field of pollution control, including managing a broad range of air and water pollution control applications.
James H. Turner, PhD, PE, is a chemical engineer with forty years of technical experience. The bulk of his career has been spent working with particles, particle control (especially fabric filtration), and control system costing, primarily as part of the regulatory process.
James P. McKenna Jr., BS, graduated from Manhattan College with a degree in chemical engineering. He has spent nearly a decade designing air pollution control equipment as well as performing field–testing of stack emissions.
专业书评 Theory, practice, and regulation—all in one place!
Written by leading experts in the field of pollution control, this timely book brings together and carefully explains the latest information on particle control. Throughout the book, the emphasis is on fine particles, defined as those less than 2.5 microns.
Despite the fact that research indicates that fine particles pose a greater health risk than larger particles, the topic of fine particles is scarcely covered in the literature. Fortunately, professionals can now turn to this book for comprehensive coverage of fine particles, including:
Results from the latest studies examining their deleterious health effects
Methods for measuring their concentration in gas streams
Methods and costs for removing them from gas streams
The impact of collecting condensables
An overview of the most recent legislation and regulation
Helping readers make the best choices based on their specific needs, the authors review the fundamentals as well as the advantages and disadvantages of particulate control devices. Readers learn the importance of and how to evaluate fine particle removal efficiency, operation and maintenance, capital and operating costs for traditional and emerging technologies, and control device selection. In addition, readers gain a solid understanding of the risks associated with guaranteeing the performance of control devices.
For all your questions regarding fine particulate control, including practice, theory, and regulation, this book is the ideal starting point. References in each chapter guide you to additional information on individual topics should you need it.
