Table Of ContentEnvironmental engineering has a leading role in the elimination E
of ecological threats, and deals, in brief, with securing technically n
the conditions which create a safe environment for mankind to v
i
live in. Due to its interdisciplinary character it can deal with a
r
wide range of technical and technological problems. Since o
environmental engineering uses the knowledge of the basic n
sciences – biology, chemistry, biochemistry and physics – it is m
able to neutralise pollution in all the elements of the environment,
e
i.e. the hydrosphere, atmosphere and lithosphere. Moreover,
n
environmental engineering deals with the design and maintenance
t
of systems of water supply, sewage disposal, heating, ventilation a
and air-conditioning in buildings. l

Environmental Engineering IV contains 77 peer reviewed papers
g
selected from 527 presented at the 4th Congress of Environmental
i
Engineering (Lublin, Poland, 2-5 September 2012). The contribu- n
tions are divided into 7 chapters: e
• Water supply e
• Water and wastewater treatment r
• Neutralization of solid wastes and sludge i
n
• Air protection and quality
g
• Indoor microclimate
I
• Energy
V
• Biology and technology
Environmental Engineering IV assesses the state of scientific
research in various areas of environmental engineering, evaluates
the organizational, technical and technological progress made in
IV
contributing to ecological security, and determines the place of Pawłowski
Environmental Engineering
environmental engineering in sustainable development, tak ing Dudzinska
into account current political and economic conditions, and is a Pawłowski
valuable source of information for the environmental engineering
professional and academic community. EDITORS
