The book covers the important aspects of water, air and noise pollution. Using a multidisciplinary approach, it highlights the impact of environmental pollution in the world. It also suggests methods for controlling and scientific monitoring of pollution-causing agents. Also included are chapters on efficient guidelines and standards, radioactive waste, solid waste disposal and sewage treatment, oil pollution and role of insecticides. Pollution in tanneries, fertilizer industry, and pulp and paper industries is also covered. The last few chapters are devoted to environmental management, benefit-cost analysis and mathematical modelling for environmental pollution control.

Elements of Environmental Engineering
KSh 25,861.00Master the fundamentals of environmental engineering with Elements of Environmental Engineering. Covers water treatment, air pollution, waste management, and sustainable solutions—ideal for students, educators, and professionals in engineering and environmental sciences.
The key features include: the important principles and practices of Sanitary Engineering, as they are understood and generally applicable in our country today, have been fully delineated so that it may be easy for the students preparing for various examinations; the treatment of the subject has been kept exhaustive, sufficiently simple without sacrificing the fundamentals involved; and, effort has been made to keep the information as much up-to-date and compact as possible, and with that view, some references have been made to the relevant Indian Standard Specifications, so that to the engineers in the profession, it may also prove to be of use. The book is broadly split up into four parts. Part I deals exclusively with the subject of “Water Supply”, Part II describes “Sewerage and Sewage Treatment”, Part III “Water Supply and Drainage of Buildings” and Part IV “Environmental Sanitation”, which includes only some of the more important topics of the day viz., Refuse Sanitation, Ventilation and Air-conditioning, Air Pollution, and Malaria, incidental to Engineering. A number of selective questions of the various Indian Universities and other examinations have been given towards the end of each chapter to serve as an exercise to the problems duly solved in the chapter. The last 2-3 decades have seen tremendous research and development in the fields of water treatment and sewage/wastewater treatment. New concepts like unit operations in water treatment and unit operation and processes, in particular biological processes, in sewage/wastewater treatment have been introduced. Besides topics like defluoridation, demineralization and wastewater reclamation have evoked considerable interest and attention. To reflect these changes, this book has been revised to make it updated, with the latest information on these topics. The readers will find the book more appropriate and useful to their needs.

Mechanics of Engineering Materials (2nd Edition)
Mechanics of Engineering Materials is well-established as the definitive textbook on the mechanics and strength of materials for students of engineering principles throughout their degree course. Assuming little or no prior knowledge, the theory of the subject is developed from first principles and all topics of stress and strain analysis are covered right up to final year level. Mechanical properties such as tensile behaviour, fatigue, creep, fracture and impact are discussed and more advanced material is also included, particularly on finite element analysis, fracture mechanics and composite materials.
This second edition has been brought fully up-to-date in line with today’s courses. Incorporating new, two-colour illustrations throughout, the book reinforces student comprehension of the theory through numerous new worked examples and end-of-chapter problems involving real engineering situations. An important new feature of this edition is the use and illustration of computer spreadsheets throughout as a powerful problem-solving tool.
Mechanics of Engineering Materials is an indispensible course text for undergraduate students of mechanical engineering, engineering science and civil engineering. It will also be a valuable reference for those studying BTEC and GNVQ courses.
