This text provides students with the scientific principles of hazardous waste management. Segmented into three major parts (sources, pathways, and receptors), and including a section on management and design applications, this book can be used in a one-semester course in the civil engineering, chemical engineering, environmental engineering or hydrology course. It can also be used in an environmental engineering or hydrology course where students do not have a design emphasis, a civil-environmental engineering course with a 33 per cent design content, or (using minimal supplemental material) a two-semester sequence in hazardous waste engineering or engineering design. The book uses example problems, end-of-chapter problems, tabular data, and includes a solutions manual.
