Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Unique problem-and-solution approach for quickly mastering a broad range of calculations

Air Pollution Control Equipment Calculations adopts a problem-and-solution approach, enabling readers to quickly grasp the fundamentals of air pollution control equipment and its essential applications. The author presents solid principles for the design and selection of air pollution control equipment, along with guidance for its efficient operation and maintenance. Readers will gain a deep understanding of both the equipment itself and the many factors affecting its performance.

After two introductory chapters, the book dedicates four chapters to examining control equipment for gaseous pollutants, including adsorption, absorption, and incineration equipment. The remaining six chapters focus on equipment for managing airborne particulate pollutants, including gravity settlers, cyclones, electrostatic precipitators, scrubbers, and baghouses. The appendix contains discussions of hybrid systems, the SI system (including conversion constants), and a cost-equipment model.

Each chapter offers a brief introduction to the control device discussed. Progressively more difficult problems, complete with solutions, enable readers to build their knowledge as they advance through the chapter. Problems reflect the latest developments in pollution control and include a variety of performance equations and operation and maintenance calculations. Each problem consists of a statement of the problem, the data used to solve the problem, and a detailed solution. Readers may further improve their skills by visiting the text's website for additional problems and solutions.

This publication serves both as a textbook for engineering students and as a reference for engineers and technicians who need to ensure that air pollution control equipment operates efficiently and that their facility meets all air pollution control standards and regulations.
