Historical overview / Gordon MacKerron -- Impact of power generation on air quality / Bernard E.A. Fisher -- Environmental performance of the liberalized UK power industry / Stephen Adrain and Ian Housley -- BPEO approaches to the design and siting of power stations / Colin Powlesland -- Environmental impact of the nuclear fuel cycle / Malcolm J. Joyce and Simon N. Port -- Electric and magnetic fields and ecology / David Jeffers -- Energy efficiency and conservation / Andrew Warren. "In today's automated world, the need for economic generation of power is of vital importance. However, the industry is commonly perceived as being responsible for pollution of the atmosphere and contamination of land and water. The wide-ranging subjects addressed in this book will contribute to the public understanding of science in this important area."--BOOK JACKET. "Encompassing areas as diverse as current performance standards and the use of nuclear fuel, Environmental Impact of Power Generation also includes an historical overview of electricity supply. The emotive issues of air pollution and the ecological effects of overhead power lines are tackled, along with energy efficiency and conservation."--BOOK JACKET. "This book will be essential reading for students and practitioners in environmental science and engineering."--Jacket. |
