Pengenalan kepada Pencemaran Udara (Penerbit USM)
Pembangunan dunia yang begitu pesat telah menyebabkan peningkatan pencemaran alam sekitar, terutamanya pencemaran udara yang telah memberikan pelbagai kesan negatif. Sehubungan ini kawalan pencemaran udara perlu diusahakan dan dipertingkatkan untuk mencegah pembebasan bahan pencemar berbahaya ke dalam atmosfera. Pengetahuan tentang bahan pencemar, konsep metereologi dan isu pencemaran udara dan iklim sejagat semestinya perlu difahami terlebih dahulu, diikuti kaedah pengukuran kadar pembebasan bahan pencemar serta perkembangan teknologi terkini bagi merealisasikan usaha ini. Senario pencemaran udara ini juga perlu dilihat daripada aspek undang-undang dan peraturan kawalan udara. Buku Pengenalan Kepada Pencemaran Udara ini amat sesuai dijadikan rujukan dan panduan para pelajar, jurutera dan mereka yang berminat tentang masalah dan kawalan pencemaran udara. Gaya penyampaian buku yang ringkas namun padat sememangnya menjadi hasrat penulis agar memudahkan pemahaman pembaca. Kes kajian bahan pencemar daripada sektor tenaga, iaitu arang batu turut dibincangkan untuk memberi gambaran sebenar tentang situasi yang berlaku.

Control and Treatment of Landfill Leachate for Sanitary Waste Disposal
Municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal is an ever-increasing problem in many parts of the world, especially in developing countries. To date, landfilling is still the preferred option for the disposal and management of MSW due to its low-cost operation. While this solution is advantageous from a cost perspective, it introduces a high level of potential pollutants which can be detrimental to the local environment. Control and Treatment of Landfill Leachate for Sanitary Waste Disposal presents research-based insights and solutions for the proper management and treatment of landfill leachate. Highlighting relevant topics on emerging technologies and treatment innovations for minimizing the environmental hazards of waste disposal, this innovative publication contributes to filling in many of the gaps that exist in the current literature available on leachate treatment. Waste authorities, solid waste management companies, landfill operators, legislators, environmentalists, graduate students, and researchers will find this publication beneficial to their professional and academic interests in the area of waste treatment and management.
Handbook of Research on Resource Management for Pollution and Waste Treatment
It is necessary to understand the extent of pollution in the environment in terms of the air, water, and soil in order for both humans and animals to live healthier lives. Poor waste treatment or pollution monitoring can lead to massive environmental issues, such as diminishing valuable resources, and cause a significant negative impact on society. Solutions, such as reuse of waste and sustainable waste management, must be explored to prevent these adverse effects. The Handbook of Research on Resource Management for Pollution and Waste Treatment is a collection of innovative research that examines waste and pollution treatment methods that can be adopted at local and international levels and...

Solid Waste Engineering and Management
This book is the second volume in a three-volume set on Solid Waste Engineering and Management. It focuses on sustainability, single waste stream processing, material recovery, plastic waste, marine litter, sludge disposal, restaurant waste recycling, sanitary landfills, landfill leachate collection, and landfill aftercare as it pertains to solid waste management. The volumes comprehensively discuss various contemporary issues associated with solid waste pollution management, impacts on the environment and vulnerable human populations, and solutions to these problems.
Engineering Towards a Sustainable Future (Penerbit USM)
This book presents the compiled outstanding research articles over Malaysia and neighbouring countries from the International Engineering for Sustainability Conference 2014 (iNESCO 2014) concerning the issue of engineering for environment and sustainability. This book is primarily addressed to academicians, researchers, scientist, innovators, and individuals who have influences in the growth and development of the nation and country. An understanding of the causes and effects, mainly contributed to the preservation of the environment as one of the basic stands that influence the behaviour of producing effective and efficient products and services, and serving the environment at once. Grateful acknowledgment is here made to the researchers, editors, organizers and those involved in gathering the data for the research articles. This work would not have reached its present form without their invaluable help. Some articles may have demographic studies of a country and hazardous chemicals used, in order to tabulate the research data and complete the research
Waste Management: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications
As the world’s population continues to grow and economic conditions continue to improve, more solid and liquid waste is being generated by society. Improper disposal methods can not only lead to harmful environmental impacts but can also negatively affect human health. To prevent further harm to the world’s ecosystems, there is a dire need for sustainable waste management practices that will safeguard the environment for future generations. Waste Management: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications is a vital reference source that examines the management of different types of wastes and provides relevant theoretical frameworks about new waste management technologies for the control of air, water, and soil pollution. Highlighting a range of topics such as contaminant removal, landfill treatment, and recycling, this multi-volume book is ideally designed for environmental engineers, waste authorities, solid waste management companies, landfill operators, legislators, environmentalists, policymakers, government officials, academicians, researchers, and students.
