"Environmental Forensics for Persistent Organic Pollutants"
represents the state-of-the-art in environmental forensics in
relation to persistent organic pollutants (POPs). The book is a
complete reference for practitioners and students, covering a range
of topics from new analytical techniques to regulatory and legal
status in the global community.
Through case studies from leading international experts,
real-world issues - including the allocation of responsibility for
release into the environment - are resolved through the application
of advanced analytical and scientific techniques. This book
introduces and assesses the development of new techniques and
technologies to trace the source and fate of newly emerging and
classic POPs (perfluoroalkyl substances, brominated flame
retardants, organochlorine pesticides, perfluorinated chemicals,
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and polychlorinated biphenyls) in
environmental media, including atmospheric, marine, freshwater, and
urban environments.
Real-world case studies show the application of advanced analytical
and scientific techniquesDiscussion of GC*GC provides an
introduction and assessment of a novel technique from leaders in
the fieldIntroduces the development of new analytical techniques
(such as 2-D GC*HC and LC*LC) to trace the source and fateRaises
awareness about the health and environmental impact of persistent
organic pollutants (POPs)Outlines the development of international
measures to control POPs so that chemists can understand the legal
issues
