Air and Noise Pollution Control

Part of the book series: Handbook of Environmental Engineering ((HEE,volume 1))

Abstract

In the preceding chapters the reader has been exposed to the principal techniques whereby the emissions of gaseous and particulate air pollutants can be controlled. Various additional control techniques exist that were not discussed earlier, and some of these are briefly presented in this chapter along with a discussion on vehicle air pollution and its control.
