Edition DescriptionRevised edition,New Edition
SynopsisThis third edition updates and expands the material presented in the best-selling first and second editions of Basic Hazardous Waste Management. It covers health and safety issues affecting hazardous waste workers, management and regulation of radioactive and biomedical/infectious wastes, as well as current trends in technologies. While the topics have been completely revised, the author employs the same practical approach that made the previous editions so popular. Chapters are structured to first outline the issue, subject, or technology, then to describe generic practice, and then to conclude with a summary of the statutory or regulatory approach. Blackman introduces fundamental issues such as human health hazards; the environmental impacts of toxic, reactive, and ignitable materials; the mobility, pathways and fates of released hazardous materials; and the roles of science, technology, and risk assessment in the standards-setting process. He explores hazardous waste site remediation technology, and the application of federal statutes, regulations, programs, and policies to the cleanup of contaminated sites. This text provides an introductory framework-which can serve as the foundation for a program of study in traditional as well as modern hazardous waste management-or a component of a related program. Its overview format provides numerous references to more detailed materials to assist the student or instructor in expansion on specific topics., The third edition of Basic Hazardous Waste Management provides a broad overview of hazardous waste management. It covers the roles of science and technology in the standards-setting processes. The author presents updated and expanded materials on environmental issues and impacts, hazardous waste treatment technologies, site assessment, waste minimization, emergency response, new and continuing regulatory and policy statutes, medical/biomedical and infectious waste, underground storage tank, and radioactive waste management. In short, the book has been completely revised to present valuable, timely information for anyone interested in hazardous waste management.
