Evaluation of Carcinogenic Organic Compounds in Industrial Effluents 12+

📓 In most industries especially in developing countries, effluent analysis is limited to physico-chemical parameters with little or no emphasis on carcinogenic organic compounds. This is either because of the complexity and high cost of analyzing organic compounds or lack of knowledge of the risks involved with the presence of carcinogenic organic compounds in industrial effluents. Furthermore, environmental regulations in most developing countries do not adequately address carcinogenic organic compounds and therefore, monitoring becomes very poor. This book provides a simplified method of analysing some carcinogenic organic compounds and the content also gives insight into the risks posed by carcinogenic organic compounds in industrial effluents. It is especially useful to professionals in environmental management and regulatory agencies, or anyone who is concerned with the hazards of industrial effluent discharges into the environment.
