Environmental chemistry is a fast developing science aimed at
deciphering fundamental mechanisms ruling the behaviour of
pollutants in ecosystems. Applying this knowledge to current
environmental issues leads to the remediation of environmental
media, and to new, low energy, low emission, sustainable processes.
Chapters review analysis and remediation of pollutants such as
greenhouse gases, chiral pharmaceuticals, dyes, chlorinated
organics, arsenic, toxic metals and pathogen in air, water, plant
and soil. Several highlights include the overlooked impact of air
pollutants from buildings for health risk, innovative remediation
techniques such as bioreactors for gas treatment, electrochemical
cleaning of pharmaceuticals, sequestration on Fe-Mn nodules,
phytoremediation and photocatalytical inactivation of microbial
pathogens.
This book will be a valuable source of information for engineers
and students developing novel applied techniques to monitor and
clean pollutants in air, wastewater, soils and sediments.
