Environmental chemistry / Химия окружающей среды

Environmental chemistry, Seventh Edition, continues much the same organizational structure, level, and emphasis that have been developed through preceding editions. In addition to providing updated material in the rapidly developing area of environmental chemistry, this edition emphasizes several major concepts that are proving essential to the practice of environmental chemistry at the beginning of the new millennium. These include the concept of the anthrosphere as a distinct sphere of the environment and the practice of industrial ecology, sometimes known as “green chemistry” as it applies to chemical science.

Chapter 1 serves as an introduction to environmental science, technology, and chemistry. Chapter 2 defines and discusses the anthrosphere, industrial ecosystems, and their relationship to environmental chemistry. Chapters 3 through 8 deal withaquatic chemistry. <...>
