Pollution Prevention: Methodology, Technologies and Practices - Hardcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Recently honored with DuPont’s Safety, Health, and Environmental Excellence Award for their work in driving pollution prevention within the company Kenneth L. Mulholland and James A. Dyer, senior consultant and senior consulting engineer, respectively, in DuPont Engineering Technology, have taught pollution-prevention techniques to more than 350 engineering professionals in the U.S. and Europe. Both have spent the past few years working on the identification, evaluation, and implementation of pollution-prevention alternatives for industrial processes.

A 28-year veteran with DuPont, Mulholland has held positions in research, process development, and chemical engineering consulting. He holds a B.S. from Lehigh University and Ph.D. from the University of Kansas, both in chemical engineering, and is a registered professional engineer in Delaware.

Dyer has been with DuPont for 14 years, working in project and process engineering, and process development, as well as consulting on VOC emission control technologies, economic evaluations, and aqueous electrolyte thermodynamic modeling. A registered professional engineer in Delaware, Dyer received his B.S. in chemical engineering from Drexel University, and an M.S. in civil engineering at the University of Delaware. He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in environmental soil geochemistry at Delaware.
