Description - Waste Management in the Chemical and Petroleum Industries by Alireza Bahadori

The global chemical and petroleum industries have always had the
challenge of disposing of chemical wastes, by-products, and
residuals, but with traditional techniques such as deep well
injection and incineration proving flawed, the need for disposal by
legal, safe and economically effective means has never been
greater. Increasingly, the need to produce without pollution is the
preferred model for industry, and the strategy of waste
minimization is seen as the best way forward. This is particularly
relevant in the petrochemical and chemical industries, where large
quantities of hazardous and toxic wastes are produced which can
pose formidable disposal problems.

Covering the essentials of treatment, recovery and disposal of
waste, as well as the requirements for process design and
engineering of equipment and facilities in the chemical and
petroleum industries, this book includes chapters on:

Wastewater Treatment

Physical Unit Operations

Chemical Treatment

Biological Treatment

Wastewater Treatment in Unconventional Oil and Gas
Industries

Wastewater Sewer Systems

Sewage Treatment

Solid Waste Treatment and Disposal

Primarily aimed at researchers and advanced students in chemical,
petroleum, and environmental fields as well as those in civil
engineering, this book should also provide a unique reference for
industry practitioners and anyone interested in chemical and
petroleum waste treatment and disposal.
