Environmental Science and Pollution Control Technologies illuminates the increasingly critical disciplines that address environmental degradation, offering a detailed account of how human activity has shaped and endangered, natural ecosystems. It examines the causes and consequences of resource depletion, climate change and global warming, and outlines key technologies and treatment methods as practical responses. From solid waste management to environmental legislation, and from mitigation strategies to tools like EMS, EIA and LCA, the book provides essential insights supported by clear illustrations. A dedicated chapter on fossil fuel phase-out and decarbonisation responds to the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gases. This book underscores the ‘Three Rs’ as essential to sustainable practice and examines how environmental pollution affects human well-being. Its interdisciplinary approach makes it an indispensable resource for students and scholars of chemical engineering and environmental science.

Prof. M. N. Vyas holds an MS from the University of Bradford and a PG Diploma from the King’s College, University of London. He brings an extensive industry and academic experience in chemical engineering. Being the first Gujarati elected fellow of the Institution of Chemical Engineers, London, he is a registered Chartered Engineer for his contributions to the field. He has worked as a Development Technologist at Unilever, UK, before joining Indian Petrochemicals Corporation Ltd. (IPCL), where he served for 29 years in senior roles across projects, operations and HSE, retiring as a General Manager. He now works as a consultant and visiting professor in Gujarat.
