Technology Selection: Reduction of Organic Chemical Emission from a - Commercial Pesticide Manufacturing Facility
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Industrial pollution prevention has been incorporated into several aspects of the chemical engineering curriculum at The University of Tennessee. One is an industrial internship program. This technology selection example focuses on a case from a pilot internship project sponsored by a pesticide manufacturer. This project involved synthesis and evaluation of waste management strategies for reduction and potential recycle of gaseous emissions from a pesticide formulation facility. These waste management strategies included pollution prevention options as well as waste treatment and disposal op t i p .
