Product Description
In Smokestacks and Progressives, David Stradling explains theevolution of one of America's first environmental movements--the antismoke crusade of the early1900s. The roots of modern environmentalism, Stradling explains, reach deep into the Victorianera, when early reformers connected beauty, health, and cleanliness with morality and demandedgovernment assistance in maintaining all of them. Air quality became an important issue formiddle-class residents in coal-dependent cities--how could a city without pure air, they asked,truly be clean, healthful, and moral? Eventually engineers came to the fore, displaced thereformers (many of them women) as leaders of the movement, and answered their ownquestion--how to abate dirty air. ... Read more

Product Description
Air Quality Compliance and Permitting Handbook provides a straightforward, easy-to-read, nonlegal explanation of the regulatory and technical concepts of air quality compliance, explaining how to effectively manage air compliance at a facility. Although the majority ofthe book is devoted to a wide general applicability, it also describes the actual permit submissions that are required under regulations (many of which end up being state requirements) and the technical and analytical approaches which are needed in preparing the information required in the permit applications. Useful topics include: Fundamental 1990 and previous Clean Air Act concepts, Permitting, Compliance Checklists and riskassessment methodologies. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Made Sense of It All
This is a terrific, clear explanation of air pollution rules. As a plant manager, I got more useful information from this book than I got in five years of paying attorneys and consultants. It's an easy read and it's easy to find the information you need. In the 700 pages (not 1,500 like somebody else said) Mr. Trzupek makes sense of all of the rules that nobody can understand, gives you weapons to fight with and provides a bunch of resources to use. This is a book I can actually use.

2-0 out of 5 stars Not Worth It
Three hundred pages of generalities, very little specific. 1200 pages of appendix. The book was over price, considering it is really nothing more than a dictionary of air quality compliance and permitting. The chapters and topics over and over suggest the topic at hand is complicated and changing and to variable to go into specifics. For 90 dollars and 1500 pages I want to know specifics for different processes, at different levels, in different regions, in different states. On page three he suggests that if you are looking for a book that covers every possible contingency this book is not for you...he is correct...yet the book should be renamed to 'If You Are In Business, You Can't Afford Not To Hire Someone That Can Understand Air-Quality Compliance...But Not Write A Comprehensive Text On The Subject in 1500 Pages or Less". ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A Bubble of Fresh Air in a Sea of Alarmism
Joel Schwarz and Steve Hayward have put together a solid evidence-based book that penetrates so much of the interest-group politics that passes for environmental science - and journalism - these days.

If people knew how much our air quality has improved over the past 30 years, they'd be stunned; not only by the gains, but by how the media have created a perpetual bad-news narrative built on spurious air quality standards designed to keep EPA bureaucrats in jobs. (Call them: asymptotic air quality standards.)

Anyone serious about the gains the US has made in air quality should read this book. It's, well, a breath of fresh air.

This book may seem like the way to go. BUT DON'T DO IT!It is 3 days before the PE exam and I am so frustruated with all of the Academy of Environmental Engineering Materials that I had to write this review.

Throughout the entire book, there are mistakes in the formulas and practice problems that are given. It can not be trusted.

Editorial Review

Product Description
This book presents the background and application of receptor models for the source identification and quantitative mass apportionment of airborne pollutants. Over the past decade, receptor models have become an accepted part of the process for developing effective and efficient air quality management plans. Information is provided on the ambient and source sampling and chemical analysis needed to provide the input data for receptor models. Commonly used models are described with examples so that the air quality specialist can see how these models are applied. Recent advances in several areas of the field are presented as well as the perspective of both U.S. Federal and State level air quality managers on how these models fit into the development of a management plan.

The aim of the book is to provide a practical guide to persons who may be given the task of implementing receptor modeling as a part of some air quality management problem. The intention of all the chapter authors is to furnishboth the basic information needed to begin doing receptor modeling as well as some insight into some of the problems related to the use of these models. These tools like any others used in solving complex technological problems are not a panacea, but do represent powerful aids in data analysis that can lead to insights as to how an airshed functions and thus, to effective and efficient air quality management strategies. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Indoor Air Quality," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Indoor Air Quality in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Indoor Air Quality when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Indoor Air Quality, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more
