Overview
In this sequel volume to ACS Symposium Series No. 422, Emerging Technologies in Hazardous Waste Management, the editors expand their coverage of the subject with contributions on air treatment, as well as a greater examination of computer applications and modeling. Twenty-one chapters are divided into four sections covering thermal treatment and abiotic emissions control, water management, biological treatment, and solid waste management. Of special interest is a presentation on the use of internal radiant energy within a gas-fired combustion chamber to maintain high combustion temperatures, a technique that appears important for the thermal destruction of many chlorinated species.
Editorials
Booknews
Of the 50 papers presented at a June 1990 symposium in Atlanta, 21 were selected for publication based on their lasting value as well as general scientific merit. The sections cover thermal treatment and abiotic emissions control, water management, biological treatment, and solid waste management. An overview of the subject is also provided. Though a continuation of the same theme, the collection is quite different from the 1990 first volume, which contains papers from a different symposium. Annotation c.
