Description
Emphasizing new science essential to the practice of environmental chemistry at the beginning of the new millennium, this book describes
the atmosphere as a distinct sphere of the environment and the practice of industrial ecology as it applies to chemical science. It includes
extensive coverage of nuclear chemistry, covering both natural environmental sources and anthropogenic sources, their impacts on health,
and their role in energy production, that goes well beyond the newspaper coverage to discuss nuclear chemistry and disposal in a balanced
and scientifically rational way.
Audience:
Audience: Upper undergraduate and graduate level students studying environmental chemistry, chemical engineering, industrial ecology, and general biology.
