Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around environmental abatement measures, specifically focusing on air quality. Participants explore the integration of environmental practices in project design and the need for retrofitting measures when such practices are not initially included.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • A participant seeks resources on effective environmental abatement measures, noting the importance of integrating these measures during the design phase of projects.
  • Another participant requests clarification on the specific type of environmental abatement being discussed, suggesting areas such as air quality, ground quality, and waste management.
  • The original poster clarifies that they are specifically interested in air quality measures, both during the design phase and as retrofitting options.
  • One participant provides a link to a book that may contain relevant information on the topic.
  • Another participant mentions that the Department of Energy has extensive resources on air quality related to HVAC systems, providing a link to the EPA's website.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the importance of discussing air quality in the context of environmental abatement measures, but there is no consensus on specific practices or resources beyond the links shared.

Contextual Notes

The discussion lacks detailed definitions of environmental abatement measures and does not resolve the specifics of what constitutes effective retrofitting options.

Who May Find This Useful

Individuals interested in environmental engineering, air quality management, and sustainable design practices may find this discussion relevant.

Hi,

I'm the newbie... so be gentle :biggrin:

I was wondering if there are any goog texts relating to good environmental abatement measures. I realize that good environmental practise is to engineer environmental systems into the design phase of projects. However often this is not often the case and abatement measures have to be retrofitted.

Any further information will be highly appreciated...

Thanks

Environmental abatement? Can you be a bit more specific? Air quality? Ground quality? Waste management?

My head hurts when I get to thinking about the environmental side of things in our business.
 
Sorry... although I was actually referring air quality in particular... General measures, both at the design and phase and retro measures would be appreciated...
