Chemical separations are of central importance in many areas of
environmental science, whether it is the clean up of polluted water or
soil, the treatment of discharge streams from chemical processes, or
modification of a specific process to decrease its environmental
impact. This book is an introduction to chemical separations, focusing
on their use in environmental applications. The authors first discuss
the general aspects of separation technology as a unit operation. They
also describe how property differences are used to generate
separations, the use of separating agents, and the selection criteria
for particular separation techniques. The general approach for each
technology is to present the chemical and/or physical basis for the
process and explain how to evaluate it for design and analysis. The
book contains many worked examples and homework problems. It is an
ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses
on environmental separations or environmental engineering.
