Written by leading experts in the field, this book provides an in-depth introduction to the chemical processes influencing the atmosphere, fresh waters, salt waters and soils. Subsequent sections discuss the behavior of organic chemicals in the environment and environmental transfer between compartments such as air, soil and water. Also included, is a section on biogeochemical cycling, which is crucial in the understanding of the behavior of chemicals in the environment. Complete with worked examples, the book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate chemistry students studying environmental chemistry.
Reflecting the speed at which this discipline is developing, this volume provides comprehensive coverage of the latest innovative methods of cleaning water, soil and air that have been polluted by heavy metals, endocrine disruptors and pharmaceuticals.
Focusing on making good the pollution of air and water that today's environment suffers, this volume sets out novel nano technological methods of tackling these problems, including visionary material on subjects such as chiral pharmaceuticals and DDT.
