Description:
Provides a comprehensive, balanced introduction to this
multi-disciplinary area of chemistry. Intended not only for
chemists, but also for environmental and other science students,
this text carefully introduces the chemistry needed to fully
appreciate this subject, placing it in an applied and practical
setting.
Written in an accessible and readable style, the book assumes only
a basic knowledge of chemistry, with the more advanced chemical
concepts carefully introduced as needed. Opening with a general
introduction to the subject and the practical skills that need to
be known, the text then moves on to cover areas of specific
interest to environmental chemists. Each chapter starts by covering
the theory and concepts, and then describes a selection of
experiments that can be undertaken.
* Provides a comprehensive introduction to environmental chemistry
covering all the key areas
* Includes a balanced coverage of both theoretical and experimental
aspects
* Maintains a careful and logically-structured approach, with
theory being covered first, followed by laboratory experiments and
student problems
* Assumes only a basic knowledge of chemistry, with more advanced
concepts introduced as needed
This book will be invaluable to students in the chemical and
environmental sciences, as well as engineering, physical, life and
earth science students interested in environmental chemistry.
