Essentials of Environmental Engineering is designed for use in an
introductory university undergrad course. This book introduces
environmental engineering as a profession applying science and math
theories to describe and explore the relationship between
environmental science and environmental engineering. Environmental
engineers work to sustain human existence by balancing human needs
from impacts on the environment with the natural state of the
environment. In the face of global pollution, diminishing natural
resources, increased population growth (especially in disadvantaged
countries), geopolitical warfare, global climate change (cyclical
and/or human-caused), and other environmental problems, it is clear
that we live in a world that is undergoing rapid ecological
transformation. Because of these rapid changes, the role of
environmental engineering has become increasingly prominent. Moreover,
advances in technology have created a broad array of modern
environmental issues. To mitigate these issues, we must capitalize on
environmental protection and remediation opportunities presented by
technology. Essentials of Environmental Engineering addresses these
very issues. It was written with the student in mind. Complex topics
are explained in an easy-to understand format and style. Numerous
examples are given and chapter review questions along with solutions
are provided in the text.
