While the field of air quality is well-established, it is evolving in response to new regulations driven by climate change. The seventh edition of this essential textbook presents the most current information, incorporating updates across all sections to reflect the latest technologies, regulations, and air quality management strategies. All chapters are thoroughly reviewed for the latest updates and the chapters on regulations, modeling, monitoring, and control technologies are revised. New sections are added on topics such as the co-benefits of climate change, air pollution, and hydrogen vehicles. The section on indoor air quality is thoroughly updated as it remains a growing concern in society. New in this EditionIncludes the latest updates on air quality legislation in the United States.Presents the latest information on the state of air quality monitoring.Provides updates on the effects of air pollution and CO2 on climate change.Explains the impact of recent changes in energy production on pollutant emissions and the associated co-benefits from climate change mitigation.Incorporates broadened coverage of air pollutant emissions and quality in other countries with an increased emphasis on global air quality.Includes a new section on ozone deposition.Provides new emerging pollutants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).This textbook is for students taking introductory courses in air quality, air pollution, and climate change. The end of each chapter includes a list of recommended readings as well as questions to check reading comprehension. Professors can take advantage of an arsenal of included tools, such as lecture slides, a test bank for each chapter, as well as answer guides.

Gibson Professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. He also serves as the inaugural professor of the UT-Oak Ridge Innovation Institute's Bredesen Center and holds a joint appointment with Oak Ridge National Laboratory. With expertise spanning air quality, climate change, energy, and human health—particularly applying AI and machine learning to environmental challenges—Dr. Fu has authored over 215 peer-reviewed journal articles and secured funding from numerous federal agencies, including CDC, DHS, DOE, DOT, FAA, NASA, NIH, NOAA, NSF, USDA, and EPA. His distinguished career includes editorial roles for prestigious journals, Fellow status in both the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Air & Waste Management Association, Board-Certified Environmental Engineer Member (BCEEM) recognition from the American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists (AAEES), and significant contributions to international environmental initiatives including the WMO's MMF-GTAD Initiative Steering Committee, WMO Research Board’s Task Team on AI for Weather (AI4Wx), and the UN ECE Task Force on Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollution. Dr. Fu earned his PhD in civil engineering from North Carolina State University after completing degrees at UCLA and National Cheng Kung University. He presently chairs the Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors (AEESP)’s Lecturers Committee and the Climate Change Division of the AWMA. Locally, he served as a member of the Knox County Air Pollution Control Board in Tennessee and currently serves on the State of Tennessee Air Pollution Control Board.Wayne T. Davis is emeritus Chancellor and emeritus Dean of the Tickle College of Engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK), and retired in 2019. He served as associate dean for research and technology in the college from 2003 to 2008. He is also emeritus professor of civil and environmental engineering. He earned his AB in physics from Pfeiffer University (1969), an MS in physics from Clemson (1971), and an MS in environmental engineering and PhD in civil engineering from UTK (1973 and 1975, respectively). He has conducted research and teaching in air quality management and pollution control for more than 45 years at UTK. He is the author/coauthor/editor of numerous research publications. Dr. Davis is a recipient of the Lyman Ripperton Outstanding Professor Award presented by the International Air and Waste Management Association (AWMA), where he is a fellow member. He has been involved in numerous projects funded by the U.S. EPA, DOE, ORNL, NSF, DOT, and various state agencies and industrial companies, particularly as related to the monitoring and control of sulfur dioxide, ozone/precursors, and particulate matter. He also received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Institute of Professional and Environmental Practice (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) in 2007. He is also a Board-Certified Environmental Engineering Member (BCEEM) of the American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists. Dr. Davis served as chair of the Knox County (Tennessee) Air Pollution Control Board for more than 22 years and served on the State of Tennessee's Air Pollution Control Board for nine years.
