An Analytical Approach to Environmental Chemistry - by Jonathan Ayers (Hardcover)

About the Book

Environmental chemistry is the study of the biochemical and chemical processes occurring in natural environments. It examines the sources, reactions, effects and transport of chemical species across various environments, including soil, air and water. This field seeks to enhance our understanding of the natural workings of the environment, focusing on chemical substances present in their naturally occurring concentrations. Environmental chemistry is inherently interdisciplinary, incorporating principles from diverse branches of chemistry, such as aquatic, soil and atmospheric chemistry, while also drawing on analytical chemistry techniques. It examines the chemical processes within the environment that are influenced by human activities, leading to significant environmental changes. This book attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of environmental chemistry and how such concepts have practical applications. The topics included herein are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field.
