Summary

Summary

Focuses on pollution prevention as the technologically viable environmental ethic of the 1990s. Features chapters from industry on the successful application of modern process analytical chemistry to problems of waste minimization, source reduction, and pollution prevention. Examines recent academic and U.S. Department of Energy efforts in the development and potential use of on-line analysis to monitor industrial processes. Showcases the National Science Foundation's highly successful university-industry-government cooperative research program at University of Washington's Center for Process Analytical Chemistry.

Choice Review

Breen and Dellarco present an important compilation of data and approaches to the application of analytical chemistry to pollution prevention. The book is divided into four sections that address challenges and approaches to the complex combination of chemistry and engineering required of process analytical chemists and, incidentally, environmental chemists. The first section focuses on the needs, challenges, and requirements of pollution prevention in industrial situations. Government, industrial, and academic views are presented on process analytical chemistry in pollution prevention. The second section discusses actual industrial situations using online analyses in several media. The emphasis is on noninvasive, nondestructive techniques easily applied under industrial conditions. The third and fourth sections contain contributions mainly from academia on innovative techniques in noninvasive analytical chemistry. For analytical and environmental chemists, there is a great deal of information in these sections on new applications of pioneering analytical techniques. In addition, there is information on detection limits, experimental methods, and interferences for several techniques. There are numerous references and much information critical in analytical chemistry. Useful for academic, industrial, and government researchers and specialists. Graduate through professional. N. W. Hinman; University of Montana
