About the Book

The book Environmental Pollution, is the outcome of intensive efforts made by the author for more than seven years in collection of materials, their recasting to suit own scheme of requirement and also incorporating new research findings from reputed researchers on environmental pollution in the book. The book has been styled to cover the requirements of University syllabus for the graduate (Honours) and postgraduate students of various universities. The book covers major aspects of environment: air pollution, water pollution, soil and land pollution, and pollution by physical agents (causing radioactive pollution, thermal pollution, sound pollution). Under the umbrella of these four major aspects a lot of valuable information has been given on many topics including particulate pollutants, problems of aerosol accumulation, role of aerosol in photochemical pollution, phenomenon of acid rain and its effects, problem of ozone depletion, uses and destructive role of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), causes of global warming, and role of some air-borne organisms as biopollutants. These items represent main segments of atmospheric pollution. Likewise, matters on industrial pollution, particularly sewage and some other biodegradable wastes, role of infectious agents in water to spread diseases, production of excess of plant nutrients in water, organic chemicals of exotic sources (including insecticides, herbicides, surfactant chemicals in detergents), inorganic chemicals in water, agricultural solid wastes, sediments, coastal pollution/oil pollution, etc., represent main instances of water pollution. Four Chapters on (i) Pollution due to Deforestations (ii) Mining Operation (iii) Radioactive Isotopes as Pollutants, and (iv) Genetic Disorders in Organisms by Pollutants are of rare importance, liable to give some starting knowledge to common readers of this book and provide awareness of how unsafe they are in this universe. The informations on effect of pollutants, on human health, animal health, plants, materials and properties are of general public interest and introduction of legal steps for controlling pollution carry additional significance.
