Environmental Pollution: Causes, Effects and Solutions, Ambik
Press, Benin City. The purpose of this book is to examine and highlight some pollutional and environmental issues currently prevalent in our communities, our society and the country and to suggest ways of addressing them and dealing with them. It has a wide and varied coverage and looks at issues including natural pollutants, pollutional aspects of flooding, pollution from agriculture, wastewater and air pollution, environmental issues in petroleum exploration, drilling wastes, gas flaring, pollution from vehicles, through solid wastes, from mechanical workshops, from manufacturing, and from electrical power generation. Oil pollution from refineries, city-wide pollution management, seismic hazards and optimal amount of pollution are also covered. It is primarily aimed at penultimate and final year engineering undergraduates, although other fields might find it stimulating and useful. Postgraduate students especially in civil, petroleum, chemical, electrical, mechanical and production engineering should also find it extremely useful.
