Download or read book Environmental Chemistry written by J. O'M. Bockris and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 797 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no need in the 1970s to explain the writing of a book on "Environmen tal Chemistry. " The despoliation of the environment by man's activities has long been clear to chemists. However, it has been the subject of public debate for a short time-since the late 1960s. Curiously, there has been little reaction in the textbook literature to reflect this concern. Apart from some brief and sketchy paperbacks for schools, there has not yet been published a substantial review of environmental chemistry. One reason for this is the breadth of the chemistry involved: it could scarcely be covered by one or two authors, for it is as wide as chemistry itself. The ideal way to write such a book would be to gather a couple of dozen authors in one place and keep them together for 6 months of discussions and writing. This not being very practical, it was decided to do the next best thing and to attempt to network a number of men together in mutual correspondence and interaction, which would lead to a book that had the advantages of the expertise of a large number of persons, and lacked many of the usual disadvan tages of the multi author book. Thus, synopses of the various articles were sent to each author, and they were encouraged to interact with each other in attempting to avoid repetition and in keeping their symbols uniform and their presentation style coordinated.

Book Analytical Applications of EDTA and Related Compounds

Download or read book Analytical Applications of EDTA and Related Compounds written by R. Přibil and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-17 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analytical Applications of EDTA and Related Compounds examines the analytical applications of ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA) and related compounds. This book also considers the "passive role of these substances, that is, their screening (masking) properties, which greatly improve the selectivity of the reactions in common use. This text consists of six chapters organized into two sections. The first part deals with the uses of EDTA and its derivatives in some fields of chemical analysis. After providing an overview of the history behind the development of EDTA as an analytical reagent, this book discusses to the nature of equilibria of complexes and the methods used in their investigation. The next chapter is dedicated to the reactions of "classical gravimetric analysis, including the precipitation reactions by means of organic reagents. The chapter on colorimetry includes a section on "colored complexing agents, which can be used also in colorimetric determinations of some elements. This text concludes by evaluating the use of EDTA as a masking agent in colorimetry. This book will be of interest to students and practitioners working in analytical chemistry and related disciplines, including polarography, chromatography, electrophoresis, flame photometry, and qualitative analysis.

Book Biochar

  • Release : 2017-03
  • ISBN : 1486305105
  • Pages : 321 pages

Download or read book Biochar written by Balwant Singh and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2017-03 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in biochar among soil and environment researchers has increased dramatically over the past decade. Biochar initially attracted attention for its potential to improve soil fertility and to uncouple the carbon cycle, by storing carbon from the atmosphere in a form that can remain stable for hundreds to thousands of years. Later it was found that biochar had applications in environmental and water science, mining, microbial ecology and other fields. Beneficial effects of biochar and its environmental applications cannot be fully realised unless the chemical, physical, structural and surface properties of biochar are known. Currently many of the analytical procedures used for biochar analysis are not well defined, which makes it difficult to choose the right biochar for an intended use and to compare the existing data for biochars. Also, in some instances the use of inappropriate procedures has led to erroneous or inaccurate values for biochars in the scientific literature. Biochar: A Guide to Analytical Methods fills this gap and provides procedures and guidelines for routine and advanced characterisation of biochars. Written by experts, each chapter provides background to a technique or procedure, a stepwise guide to analyses, and includes data for biochars made from a range of feedstocks common to all presented methods. Discussion about the unique features, advantages and disadvantages of a particular technique is an explicit focus of this handbook for biochar analyses. Biochar is primarily intended for researchers, postgraduate students and practitioners who require knowledge of biochar properties. It will also serve as an important resource for researchers, industry and regulatory agencies dealing with biochar.
