Polymers

Beschreibung

An accessible treatment of this crucial area of environmental chemistry, Polymers, the Environment and Sustainable Development employs an interdisciplinary approach to tackle the problem of polymeric materials' inherent durability and subsequent persistence in the environment. In a format ideally suited as a study-aid, yet also a comprehensive and current reference tool, the book covers such areas as: * Waste management issues * Environmental impact * Waste streams * LCA * Recycling techniques * Socio-economic implications * Future directions Each chapter provides a complete coverage of the main themes with directed further reading and revision exercises with sample questions and answers to consolidate the main issues addressed. Essential reading for both advanced undergraduates and postgraduate students of the vast arena of environmental and polymer sciences.
Recycling von Kunststoffen, Gummi und anderen Polymeren: Wie beeinflussen solche Prozesse unsere Umwelt? Dieser Frage geht der vorliegende Band nach, wobei sich der Autor auf die neue Gesetzgebung in den USA, Japan und der EU bezieht, die Polymerhersteller zum Recycling zwingt. Vor- und Nachteile der Recyclingkreisläufe werden einander gegenübergestellt. Alle Kapitel enthalten Beispielfragen und -antworten.
