Lecture Notes On Environmental Science

This lecture note covers most of the core aspects of environmental science, focusing on pollution and waste management: air pollution, water pollution, and treatment and methods of water treatment both as a theoretical background and real-life insights. This includes oil contamination in both freshwater and marine waters, where a discussion of effects and how to treat oil spills comes into play. A section on Hazardous Waste discusses sources, disposal methods, and impact on the environment. That's helpful for a student or environmental scientist interested in discussing pollution problems but also possible solutions.

Environmental Chemistry Lecture Notes by Asoka Marasinghe

This lecture note is an introduction to key environmental chemistry topics. It begins with the composition of the atmosphere and pollutants responsible for environmental degradation. The topics discussed include the Chapman cycle, protection of the ozone layer, and the seasonal depletion of ozone in Antarctica. Principles of combustion, alternative fuels, and the role of water in environmental sustainability are also covered in it. This occupies a good part of the note-writing; acid rain, and its impact on the environment. It is basically important reading to those students who wish to link chemistry with environmental protection.
