Multimedia Environmental Models: The Fugacity Approach, Third Edition, takes a broad approach of viewing chemical behavior in the total biosphere of connected biotic and abiotic compartments. Chemicals are subject to the laws of "mass balance," a constraint that provides the opportunity to establish quantitative expressions for chemical fate that are central to chemical management and regulatory legislation.

This book employs both the conventional concentration-based procedures and those based on application of the more elegant and powerful concept of fugacity to characterize equilibrium, steady-state distribution, and time-dependent transport between environmental phases such as air, water, and soil. Organic chemicals are emphasized because they are more easily generalized when assessing environmental behavior.

Features

  • Illustrates professional approaches to calculating the fate of chemicals in the environment
  • Explicitly details all worked examples in an annotated step-by-step fashion
  • Presents real-life freely downloadable models of use to government, industry, and private consulting professionals and students alike
  • Clarifies symbols and notation
  •
