Environmental engineering is the application of
science and
engineering principles to improve the
environment (air, water, and/or land resources), to provide healthy water, air, and land for human habitation and for other organisms, and to
remediate polluted sites. Environmental engineering involves
water and
air pollution control, recycling,
waste disposal, and
public health issues as well as a knowledge of
environmental engineering law. It also includes studies on the environmental impact of proposed construction projects.Environmental engineers conduct hazardous-
waste management studies to evaluate the significance of the such hazards, advise on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to prevent mishaps. Environmental engineers also design municipal water supply and
industrial wastewater treatment systems as well as being concerned with local and worldwide environmental issues such as the effects of
acid rain,
ozone depletion, water pollution and air pollution from
automobile exhausts and
industrial sources.
