Air Pollution Control

Author: S P Mahajan
The air we breathe is being polluted by activities, such as burning coal, oil,
and other fossil fuels; and manufacture of chemicals. Air pollution can even TEXTBOOK
occur from smaller, everyday activities, such as cooking, space heating, and
degreasing and painting operations. These activities add gases and particles to
the air we breathe. When these gases and particles accumulate in the air in high
enough concentrations, they can harm us and our environment. The book on
air pollution deals with the various sources of air pollution and the associated
environmental and health impacts. It also discusses the appropriate measures to control/prevent the same.

Table of contents
• Introduction to air pollution • Air pollution: impact, legislation, and standards • Air pollution measurement
• Prevention of air pollution • Air pollution meteorology • Air pollution modelling • Air pollution control—
particulate matter I • Air pollution control—particulate matter II • Air pollution control: volatile organic
compounds • Air pollution control: sulphur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen

The twenty-first century is already an urban one. Cities are pivotal to sustainability
concerns—globalization, climate change, food security, environmental protection,
and innovation. Today’s urban actors, both citizens and their leaders, have a major
responsibility as trustees of the future: their present actions will influence the shape
and structure of cities, so that the generation to come may live healthy and contended
lives. This volume takes the reader straight to the heart of how cities work, and
identifies contemporary trends, mechanism, and tools that can influence current
strategies and choices.

Vernacular Traditions
Contemporary architecture
Author: Aishwarya Tipnis
The book is an attempt to bridge the gap between the past and the future – the
vernacular and the contemporary. It questions the relevance of the vernacular
in contemporary times and illustrates the inherent sustainability in vernacular
built form. Emphasizing on the fact that apart from the preservation of vernacular
architecture it is more important to carry forward the valuable lessons of the past
into the future, the book presents myriad examples of contemporary architectural
works and showcases how vernacular traditions can be reinterpreted to form contemporary buildings. It
encourages young designers to look within India for models of sustainable design rather than importing
international designs which may or may not be relevant to the Indian context.

Tectonics of the Eastern

Continental Margin of India
Authors: K S R Murthy, A S Subrahmanyam, and V Subrahmanyam
Tectonics of the Eastern Continental Margin of India presents the different aspects
of a passive margin, such as its evolution, tectonics, and associated hazards, taking
the Eastern Continental Margin of India (ECMI) as a case study. The book gives a
detailed analysis on the tectonics of the ECMI, with emphasis on the Land-Ocean
Tectonic (LOT) lineaments over the offshore basins of Cauvery, Krishna–Godavari,
and Mahanadi. A preliminary estimate on the seismic hazards associated with ECMI is
presented in the book.
This book will be useful to students of geosciences in general and to researchers in the field of marine geophysics
in particular. The basement structure derived from the analysis of magnetic and gravity data over the three offshore
basins (Cauvery, Krishna–Godavari, and Mahanadi) will serve as a useful database for exploration agencies in their
search for hydrocarbons. The book is based entirely on data collected over the ECMI and is the first attempt for a
comprehensive presentation on the passive margins of India.
