Good news for an eco-friendly country

Nyer's book is an excellent introduction to the rationale and criteria for groundwater remediation without the intricate mathematics that chemical engineers know, yet it is an excellent design course for ChemE's dealing with groundwater problems. Focusing on carbon adsorption and stripping techniques it goes on to delve into the biochemical aspects of remediation, providing related data from case studies that can help design engineers validate their work.
