Handbook of Oil Spill Science and Technology

Herausgegeben von Fingas, Merv

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Oil Spill Science and Technology provides a scientific approach to the clean up of oil spills. Topics include the analysis of oil behavior such as evaporation, solubility, and sedimentation. Other topics include the biodegradation and environmental effects of oil spills and case studies. An authoritative reference for professionals in the field as well as a textbook for those entering the field, the book is a response to a stated interest from colleges and universities to teach courses specifically on this topic, particularly in the environmental sciences.

---

Provides a scientific basis for the cleanup and for the assessment of oil spills

Enables Non-scientific officers to understand the science they use on a daily basis
Multi-disciplinary approach covering fields as diverse as biology, microbiology, chemistry, physics, oceanography and toxicology
Covers the science of oil spills from risk analysis to cleanup and through the effects on the environment
Includes case studies examining and analyzing spills, such as Tasman Spirit oil spill on the Karachi Coast, and provides lessons to prevent these in the future
