Description
The Book Environmental chemistry is considered important at a societal level as it is linked with pollutants and their impact on the environment, reduction of contaminants and environmental management. The living beings including human beings found on the Earth are exposed to the chemicals and used these chemicals as nutrients. The contaminants present in the environment are due to forest fires, floods, volcanoes, etc. Human beings are also responsible for the contamination of the environment to some extent. To understand the effect of these chemicals on the environment, it is required to examine behaviour of chemicals in the precise and entire environment. This book explained detaily about a chemical is released into the environment, it becomes distributed among the four major environmental compartments: (1) air, (2) water, (3) soil, and (4) flora and fauna, that is, living organisms. Each of the first three categories can be further subdivided in floral (plant) environments and faunal (animal, including human) environments. The fraction of the chemical that will move into each compartment is governed by the physicochemical properties of that chemical.
