Sustainable Practices in Geoenvironmental Engineering (en Inglés) - Catherine N. Mulligan

This third edition focuses on the application of geoenvironmental engineering procedures and practices to mitigate and reduce the adverse impacts on the geoenvironment from anthropogenic sources including emerging contaminants such as micro and nanoplastics, pharmaceuticals, and fire retarding chemicals. Thoroughly updated with three new chapters and extensive use of case studies to showcase examples of sustainable practices, this new edition discusses many activities that are still generating geoenvironmental impacts that are adverse to the quality and health of the geoenvironment. It includes new tools and procedures that have been developed to evaluate and minimize adverse impacts.
