    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Fundamentals of Air Pollution, Sixth Edition offers an extensive study of the science of air pollution. With a highly interdisciplinary approach, the book's author examines air pollution through the lenses of chemistry, physics, meteorology, engineering, toxicology, regulation, and more. Students, faculty, and researchers alike will find a world of information in this comprehensive text that is strategically organized into six parts: Foundations of Air Pollution, The Risks of Air Pollution, Tropospheric Pollution, Biogeochemistry of Air Pollutants, Addressing Air Pollution, and The Future for Air Pollution Science and Engineering.

    Readers will find helpful features throughout, including case studies, topical sidebars, worked examples, calculations, and reference data. This valuable resource offers an up-to-date and comprehensive analysis of air pollution with its wealth of benefits to both students and researchers.


    • Provides a systems approach to air pollution that helps readers understand the physical, chemical, biological, and engineering underpinning of any air quality topic
    • Includes new sidebars and examples of emerging problems to help readers apply skills needed to address air pollution
    • Presents critical equations, symbology, and a glossary useful for anyone who reads the Federal Register, state, province, and national standards and guidelines, and journal articles
