Industrial Ecology: Environmental Chemistry and Hazardous Waste

By Stanley E. Manahan

Industrial ecology, a relatively new concept, seeks to treat industrial systems in a manner similar to ecological systems in nature. The author of Lewis Publishers' widely adopted Environmental Chemistry examines this innovative technology, using an overall framework of industrial ecology to cover hazardous wastes from an environmental chemistry perspective. The first seven chapters focus on environmental science and technology, and industrial ecology. Subsequent chapters deal specifically with hazardous substances and hazardous waste, as they relate to industrial ecology and environmental chemistry.
