Microbiology of Landfill Sites (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The First Edition, published in 1990, was the first text to consider the definitive fundamental science of landfill biotechnology. Since then, major research initiatives, particularly in the U.K. and South Africa, have resulted in considerable advancement in our knowledge of landfill microbiology. The Second Edition details this progress.
