Environmental Analysis (PB)

Environmental Analysis is a textbook which comprehensively surveys the most important analytical chemistry methods now used in this field. All the main areas of environmental analysis are covered. The first two chapters introduce the concepts necessary for a study of the environment. They enable the reader to gain an understanding of how pollutants may be transported in the environment and the role of analytical chemistry in the monitoring of these pollutants. The remaining six chapters cover the analysis of water, solid and atmospheric samples. The special problems of ultra-trace analysis are also considered. A number of problems are included at the end of each chapter.
