Air Pollution Control Equipment Calculations' problem-and-solution approach enables readers to quickly grasp the fundamentals of air pollution control equipment and essential applications.

Following two introductory chapters, Air Pollution Control Equipment Calculations dedicates four chapters to examining control equipment for gaseous pollutants, including adsorption, absorption, and incineration equipment.

The remaining six chapters deal with equipment for managing airborne particulate pollutants, including:

• gravity settlers
• cyclones
• electrostatic precipitators
• scrubbers
• baghouses

Air Pollution Control Equipment Calculations serves both as a textbook for engineering students and as a reference for engineers and technicians who need to ensure that air pollution control equipment operates efficiently and enables their facility to meet all air pollution control standards and regulations.
