内容简介
2010年接连发生的石油泄漏事件（美国墨西哥湾BP石油泄漏、中国大连石油泄漏）引起了政府和环保人士的高度关注，同时也将中美两国政府处理该危机的手段形成了鲜明对比。此书是加拿大一位资深环境危机处理专家写的，目的就是为政府、炼油、工程等各种专业人员提供一个对石油泄漏及其对环境影响的基本认识。
英文简述：Constant media attention on oil spills has created global awareness of their risks and the damage they do. Often under-reported is the average cost of the cleanup - often as high as $200 per liter of oil spilled. Oil is a necessity in today's industrial society, and since our dependence on it is not likely to and any time soon, we will continue to have spills. This indispensable reference supplies the information required to proceed with cleanup efforts immediately. The revised and expanded edition of a bestseller, Basics of Oil Spill Cleanup, Second Edition provides the tools for remediating the on-and off-shore oil spills that can threaten sensitive coastal habitats. The Second Edition includes a new chapter highlighting the effects of oil on the environment and wildlife and a glossary of technical terms. After reading it, you will understand the different techniques required based on the type of oil spilled and the environmental circumstances involved in the spill. Whether large or small, no oil spill is insignificant. They create far-reaching environmental problems -always a public relations nightmare. Don't wait until you have an emergency to go hunting for a solution. Prepare yourself - and your organization - with Basics of Oil Spill Cleanup, Second Edition.
