"In light of increasing regulatory pressure on air pollution emissions, Hunter...and Oyama explore the science, technology, economics, and applications specific to controlling volatile organic compounds emissions in a number of industries." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 24, No. 4, December 2000)
"This book addresses a major environmental problem...I find this book...refreshing, focused and well-written." (Journal of Hazardous Materials, Vol. 90, No. 1, February 2002)

Mit Sicherheit ist die Kontrolle und Begrenzung der Luftverschmutzung durch Industriechemikalien eines der wichtigsten Arbeitsfelder der Umwelttechnologie zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts. Dieser Band beschäftigt sich ausführlich mit flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen (VOC), wobei sowohl konventionelle als auch innovative Ansätze der Reinigung von VOC-haltigen Abluftströmen zur Sprache kommen.
