The basics of environmental chemistry and a toolbox for solving
problems
Elements of Environmental Chemistry uses real-world examples to
help readers master the quantitative aspects of environmental
chemistry. Complex environmental issues are presented in simple
terms to help readers grasp the basics and solve relevant problems.
Topics covered include: steady- and non-steady-state modeling,
chemical kinetics, stratospheric ozone, photochemical smog, the
greenhouse effect, carbonate equilibria, the application of
partition coefficients, pesticides, and toxic metals. Numerous
sample problems help readers apply their skills. An interactive
textbook for students, this is also a great refresher course for
practitioners.
A solutions manual is available for Academic Adopters. Please
