Applications of Environmental Chemistry - A Practical Guide for Environmental Professionals (Electronic book text)

The easy-to-use structure of this book makes it a handy resource. The author summarizes the chemistry topics most important in environmental applications. He includes frequently used data such as: water solubilities, partition coefficients, natural abundance of trace metals in soil, and federal drinking water standards. Lists containing "rules of thumb" supply methods for making quick estimations. Applications of Environmental Chemistry provides the basic equations, theories, and principles you need to understand - at a practical level - frequently encountered topics in environmental chemistry. It does not overwhelm you with excess information but answers your most frequently asked questions clearly and succinctly. It is intended to be a guide and reference for professionals and students who must use the concepts of environmental chemistry but are not chemists and haven't the time and/or inclination to learn all the relevant background material.
