Features: This book systematically and concisely introduces the fundamental theoretical knowledge of atmospheric pollution control technology, as well as the basic principles for preventing atmospheric pollution, various engineering approaches, main equipment, and some typical processes. The book is divided into eleven chapters, primarily selecting currently mature and commonly used technologies. It starts with the basic principles and emphasizes engineering design methods and equipment selection, highlighting the characteristics of engineering applications. Additionally, the book introduces the latest developments in contemporary atmospheric pollution control technology and explores widely concerned global atmospheric pollution issues and China's composite pollution problems. This book is one of the short-hour series textbooks for core environmental engineering courses in universities, compiled according to the basic requirements of relevant courses in environmental engineering programs in higher education. Its overall design addresses the current situation of reduced teaching hours and educational reform in various schools, comprehensively integrating teaching content and emphasizing the practical application of knowledge in this discipline, as well as strengthening the cultivation of students' practical operational skills. The book is divided into five parts, totaling eleven chapters. Part I covers basic theories, including Introduction, Combustion and Atmospheric Pollution, and Basic Knowledge of Atmospheric Pollution Control; Part II focuses on particulate matter control, including mechanical dust collectors (gravity, inertia, cyclone, and swirl collectors), electrostatic precipitators, filter dust collectors, and baghouses. Part III addresses gaseous pollutant control, including absorption, adsorption, catalytic, biological, combustion, condensation, membrane separation, and electron beam irradiation methods. Part IV covers dilution control of pollutants, mainly including atmospheric diffusion, stack design, and site selection. Part V discusses exhaust gas purification systems, including ventilation hoods, pipeline systems, fans, and pumps. Each chapter includes exercises. In addition to being suitable for undergraduate teaching in environmental engineering at universities, this book can also serve as a reference for environmental protection technicians and vocational school instructors teaching environmental courses.
