Most of the available books on hazardous materials and hazardous wastes (HMW) focus on single, specialized aspects of the subject. This volume provides--in a single-source--an overview of all the essential information drawn from a variety of disciplines that pertain to the efficient management of hazardous materials and wastes. Draws on information from such fields as biology, chemistry, engineering, geology, etc.; follows the cradle-to-grave journey of a hazardous substance--from its creation to its transition into a hazardous waste; and stresses practical, hands-on management techniques that save time and money.
