As one of your industry’s environmental managers responsible for your organization’s pollution prevention plan (P3), you have been asked to present to an industry group that focuses on domestic air and waste management technologies. The group is interested in the relevance of pollution prevention (P2) for their respective industries. You have decided to introduce the group to P2 through the critical relevance of physical, chemical, and biological processes affecting transport and fate in the environment that must be controlled.
Tasks
Develop a PowerPoint (PPT) presentation that describes the following:
Include a short summary of the need for P2 in industry (no more than four slides).
Provide a summary of the physical processes that may affect pollutant transport and fate (no more than five slides).
- Include a summary of the chemical processes that may affect pollutant transport and fate (no more than five slides).
- Provide a summary of the biological processes that may affect pollutant transport and fate (no more than five slides).
- Show how to calculate for soil porosity (n) when the lab-determined bulk density of the soil (
b) is 1.50 and the estimated particle density of the soil ( d) is 2.65 g cm-3 (no more than one slide). Include your solution. - Show how to calculate for hydraulic conductivity, K(
), when the measured saturated hydraulic conductivity (K) is 0.00175 cm/sec and the calculated relative permeability, kr( ) is 50% (no more than one slide). Include your solution.
