Vallero, Daniel A.,

Air pollution calculationsquantifying pollutant formation, transport, transformation, fate and risks /[electronic resource] :Daniel A. Vallero. - First edition. - Amsterdam :Elsevier,2019. - 1 online resource :ill.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Introduction -- Characterizing air pollutants -- Pollutant transformation -- Environmental partitioning -- Air partitioning -- Physical transport of air pollutants -- Water and the atmosphere -- Air pollution biogeochemistry -- Thermal reactions -- Air pollution phases and flows -- Sampling and analysis -- Air pollution risk calculations -- Air pollution control technologies -- Air pollution dispersion models -- Economics and project management -- Reliability and failure -- Air pollution decision-making. -- Appendices: Key equations ; Abbreviations and symbols.

Air Pollution Calculations introduces the equations and formulae that are most important to air pollution, but goes a step further. Most texts lack examples of how these equations and formulae apply to the quantification of real-world scenarios and conditions. The ample example calculations apply to current air quality problems, including emission inventories, risk estimations, biogeochemical cycling assessments, and efficiencies in air pollution control technologies.In addition, the book explains thermodynamics and fluid dynamics in step-by-step and understandable calculations using air quality and multimedia modeling, reliability engineering and engineering economics using practical examples likely tobe encountered by scientists, engineers, managers and decision makers. The book touches on the environmental variables, constraints and drivers that can influence pollutant mass, volume and concentrations, which in turn determine toxicityand adverse outcomes caused by air pollution. How the pollutants form, move, partition, transform and find their fate are explained using the entire range of atmospheric phenomena. The control, prevention and mitigation of air pollution are explained based on physical, chemical and biological principles which is crucial to science-based policy and decision-making. Users will find this to be a comprehensive, single resource that will help them understand air pollution, quantifyexisting data, and help those whose work is impacted by air pollution.
