I am exploring up-to-date books on air pollution and air quality, and I would like to know which books do you recommend for environmental engineering students.
Undoubtedly the most complete book on air pollution is: Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics: From Air Pollution to Climate Change Book by John H. Seinfeld and Spyros N. Pandis
It is very difficult to recommend just a single book, instead I would like to share some of the books that were very helpful in my own work with air pollution models in the past:
1) Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics: From Air Pollution to Climate Change, 3rd Edition, John H. Seinfeld, Spyros N. Pandis (You can obtain a pdf file with this book after a Google search with the keywords: seinfeld atmospheric chemistry and physics pdf)
2) Atmospheric Pollution History, Science, and Regulation, Mark Z. Jacobson, Stanford University, California
3) Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow, 2nd edition, Elaine S. Oran, Naval Research Laboratory, Washington DC, Jay P. Boris, Naval Research Laboratory, Washington DC, Publisher: Cambridge University Press
4) The structure of atmospheric turbulence. By J. L. Lumley and H. A. Panofsky. New York (Interscience Publishers), 1964. Pp. xi, 239; 73 Figures; 7 Tables.
5) Aerosol Science: Theory and Practice, Williams, M.M.R.; Loyalka, S.K.
6) Fundamental Chemical Kinetics: An Explanatory Introduction to the Concepts, M R Wright, Jun. 1999, Elsevier
7) Microphysics of Clouds and Precipitation, Authors: Pruppacher, H.R., Klett, J.D
8) An Introduction to Dynamic Meteorology Hardcover – Illustrated, Aug. 31 2012, by James R. Holton (Author), Gregory J. Hakim (Author)
9) Numerical Weather Prediction, by George J. Haltiner
10) Numerical Solution of Time-Dependent Advection-Diffusion-Reaction Equations, Authors: Hundsdorfer, Willem, Verwer, Jan G.
11) Atmospheric Radiation: Theoretical Basis Paperback – Illustrated, Jan. 1 1985, by R. M. Goody, Y. L. Yung
12) Turbulent Diffusion in the Environment, Csanady, G.T.
My background is focused on technologies such as fabric filters, precipitators, scrubbers, etc. Do you have any interest in these? AS coal is in decline, interest level has waned but the devloping world is still using and considering coal which has the highest need for controls.
