Chemical Modeling of Aqueous Systems II

ACS BOOKS Sources and Fates of Aquatic Pollutants. Ronald A. Hites and S. J. Eisenreich, Eds. The processes controlling the transport and fate of inorganic and organic species in the limnic and marine environments have been delineated only in the past 10 years. These processes are studied with a holistic approach to aquatic pollutant chemistry, in which the atmosphere, water, and sediment are considered interdependent compartments of an ecosystem. This 16-chapter book presents this holistic approach and describes the relationship between physical mixing rates and chemical reaction rates. Four sections are covered in this volume: Air-Water Processes, Water Column Processes, Water-Sediment Processes, and Case Studies. This volume will be useful for atmospheric scientists, industrial chemists, marine scientists, and environmental chemists. Advances in Chemistry Series No. 216; 1987; 558 pages with index; cloth, ISBN 0-8412-0983-9. Aquatic Humic Substances: Influence on Fate and... Tovább

Suffet and Patrick MacCarthy, Eds. Humic substances dissolved in source water seriously complicate the purification process. A treatment that removes a particular pollutant from one water sample may be largely ineffective with water from another region. The 45 chapters of this volume offer a comprehensive discussion of recent research and practical applications. The major sections are concerned with the characterization and environmental impact of aquatic humic substances, their reactions in natural waters and sediments, and their influences on water treatment. Somé specific topics are hazardous waste chemicals, water solubility enhfncement, sorption, metál speciation, and photochemistry. Oxidation, enzymatic detoxification, adsorption, coagulation, ion exchange, and membrane processes are described as they are applied in North America, Europe, and Asia. advances in Chemistry Series No. 219; 1989; 864 pages with index; cloth, ISBN 0-8412-1428-X.
