Solide Grundkenntnisse in Chemie und Physik sind unverzichtbar, wenn man verstehen will, wie verschiedene Technologien funktionieren. Die Umwelttechnologie ist da keine Ausnahme. Die Ausbildungsprogramme in Umwelttechnologie, die von PETE (Partnership for Environmental Technology Education) angeboten werden, konzentrieren sich neuerdings auf einen kombinierten Chemie-Physik-Ansatz, um Verfahren und Techniken der Umwelttechnologie umfassender zu vermitteln. Dieses Laborhandbuch ist die ideale Ergänzungslektüre zu Swansons Lehrbuch "Integrated Chemistry and Physics" und ist für ein 2- oder 4-jähriges Ausbildungsprogramm in Umwelttechnologie geeignet. Mit einer Fülle praktischer Beispiele.
