ABSTRACT
In the last 40 years, the environmental engineering profession has expanded its societal responsibilities to include the control of air pollution from industrial sources. Though not exactly “seven maids with seven mops trying to get it clear,” increasing numbers of environmental engineers are confronted with problems in this most vital area. Although the design and construction of air pollution control equipment today is accomplished with some degree of success, air pollution problems still exist. Environmental engineers of today and tomorrow must develop proficiency and improved understanding of the design and selection of air pollution control equipment in order to cope with these problems and challenges-“to get it clear.”
