While numerous journals and books are available in the market highlighting the developments in the field of environmental technology, none of them exclusively focuses on the technologies that would be in the forefront in near to far future. Each and every article in the book is peer-reviewed and from a different sub-discipline. Because of its interdisciplinary topics on for instance air pollution and energy production, this makes it a one book for all and serves as an excellent resource for scientists, entrepreneurs, politicians and non-governmental organizations who wish to gain information on upcoming and promising technologies. |
