Content:
Given the presence of a wide variety of contaminants in the environment, it is important to understand what drives a contaminant from one medium to another, as well as the manner and extent to which a contaminant associates with the different media or phases within a local environmental system. Partition and Adsorption of Organic Contaminants in Environmental Systems forms a comprehensive resource on the behavioral characteristics of contaminants so that appropriate strategies can be adopted to either prevent or minimize their adverse impacts on human welfare and natural resources. Cary Chiou's.
Note:
Important thermodynamic properties -- Fundamentals of the solution theory -- Interphase partition equations -- Fundamentals of the adsorption theory -- Contaminant partition and bioconcentration -- Vapor adsorption on minerals and other solids -- Contaminant sorption to soils and natural solids -- Contaminant uptake by plants from soil and water.
