Environmental Status of India
Environmental pollution has assumed alarming proportions in recent years. Its adverse impact on the everyday lives of people is increasing in magnitude and intensity. That more and more people are becoming aware of this hazard is evident from the fact that National Environmental Engineering Research Institute is inundated with queries relating to various aspects of environmental pollution. This book has been prepared to present the environmental status of India, study various pertinent issues and suggest measures to mitigate the harmful effects of environmental pollution. It is divided into seven main sections, each dealing with an important aspect of environmental pollution. The Air Polluti...
Recent Trends in Sustainability and Management Strategy
With enterprises world over redefining the very purpose of their existence from profit-making to include societal and environmental responsibilities, sustainability has taken a centre stage for these business entities. Governments, not-for-profit organizations and social activist groups are also equally concerned about the overall impact of economic development on environmental and societal fabric. It is in this context, that ICSMS–2015 aims at sharing research and experience based knowledge among researchers, academicians, policy-makers, industry veterans, NGOs, consultants, students and practitioners in their respective fields.
A Spark in the Smokestacks
Winner, 2024 Robert E. Park Book Award, Section on Community and Urban Sociology, American Sociological Association Environmental organizing in Beijing emerged in an unlikely place in the 2000s: new gated residential communities. After rapid population growth and housing construction led to a ballooning trash problem and overflowing landfills, many first-time homeowners found their new neighborhoods facing an unappetizing prospect—waste incinerator projects slated for their backyards. Delving into the online and offline conversations of communities affected by the proposed incinerators, A Spark in the Smokestacks demonstrates how a rising middle class acquires the capacity for organizing i...
Wastewater Management
The book presents an overview of the tanning industry-its characteristics, pollution impacts, processes and various treatment methods and disposal techniques, which have been experimental or put into practice over the past few decades, including the important data on tanning industries. It also deals with the cost considerations of the treatment technique and economic assessment of the recovery systems.
Urban Air Quality Monitoring, Modelling and Human Exposure Assessment
This contributed volume is primarily intended for graduate and professional audiences. The book provides a basic understanding of urban air quality issues, root causes for local and urban air pollution, monitoring and modelling techniques, assessment, and control options to manage air quality at local and urban scale. The book also offers useful information on indoor air quality and smart sensors, which are gaining much importance in current times.
Landscape Ecological Applications in Man-Influenced Areas
Landscape Ecological Applications in Man-Influenced Areas not only expands the concept of landscape ecology, but also applies its principles to man-influenced ecosystems. New dimensions of landscape ecological research in a global change such as urbanization, biodiversity, and land transformation are explored in this book. The book also includes case studies concerning landscape analysis and evaluation using spatial analysis and landscape modelling for establishing sustainable management strategy in urban and agricultural landscapes.
