Principles of Environmental Engineering & Science: 2024 Release is an introductory textbook intended for sophomore- and junior-level undergraduate students. The text presents foundational scientific and engineering principles for students whether or not they ultimately pursue environmental engineering as a career.
The book introduces major environmental concerns across multiple domains, including water resources, air pollution, and hazardous and solid waste. Relevant regulatory standards and environmental practices provide context across these core subject areas.
Rather than concentrating primarily on engineering design, the textbook highlights fundamental scientific principles, professional ethics, and safety. Mass and energy balances are utilized across the text as an analytical tool to explore environmental systems and address engineering challenges.
