The book covers the important aspectsof water, air and noise pollution. Using a multidisciplinary approach, it highlights the impact of environmental pollution in the world. It also suggests methods for controlling and scientific monitoring of pollution-causing agents. Also included are chapters on efficient guidelines and standards, radioactive waste, solid waste disposal and sewage treatment, oil pollution and role of insecticides. Pollution in tanneries, fertilizer industry, and pulp and paper industries is also covered. The last few chapters are devoted to environmental management, benefit-cost analysis and mathematical modelling for environmental pollution control
