This comprehensive and up-to-date textbook discusses fundamental aspects of air pollution with the help of solved and case examples within the chapter and review questions at the end of each chapter. The textbook discusses in depth the entire domain of air pollution, from the fundamentals, sources, types, effects, associated risks, ecology, meteorology, climatology, sampling, monitoring and instrumentation, laboratory quality control, data analysis and interpretation, modelling, control technologies and indoor air pollution, to the latest principles of air quality management and legislation, regulations and standards.This book:Covers fundamentals of air pollution, the atmosphere, air pollution meteorology, effects and control of air pollutionDiscusses engineering aspects of air quality management and includes concepts of ecology, growth, and sustainable development in the context of air pollutionExplains air pollution mitigation philosophies, legislation, regulations, and standardsComprehensively discusses topics including air quality monitoring, sampling, air quality modelling and air quality data analysisIncludes case examples for better understanding of the topics and solution manual for the benefit of instructorsThe text will be useful for senior undergraduate and post-graduate students in the fields of science and engineering. Pedagogical features including solution manual will be uploaded on the website.

This book presents cutting-edge research findings on environmental pollution and remediation, covering key areas such as pollution analysis and monitoring, as well as pollution control and restoration. At the 2024 UN Environment Assembly, environmental pollution and remediation were once again defined as one of the three major crises facing the planet. The global environmental pollution issue remains severe; despite the efforts of many countries and regions, the situation is still far from optimistic. Issues such as heavy metals and radioactive contamination in seawater are gradually becoming significant topics in environmental pollution. Accurate composition analysis and effective remediation strategies are essential in addressing pollution, and enhancing the accuracy of pollutant source analysis and the effectiveness of harmless pollution management are key subjects of discussion in this book. Furthermore, the book aims to facilitate the exchange of scientific information among scholars from leading universities, research centers, and high-tech enterprises around the world. This book will be highly beneficial to scholars, engineers, and researchers in the fields of environmental engineering and environmental remediation.

Artificial neural networks (ANNs), which are parallel computational models, comprising of interconnected adaptive processing units (neurons) have the capability to predict accurately the dispersive behavior of vehicular pollutants under complex environmental conditions. This book aims at describing step-by-step procedure for formulation and development of ANN based VP models considering meteorological and traffic parameters. The model predictions are compared with existing line source deterministic/statistical based models to establish the efficacy of the ANN technique in explaining frequent dispersion complexities in urban areas.The book is very useful for hardcore professionals and researchers working in problems associated with urban air pollution management and control.
