A comprehensive account of the state of the science of environmental mass transport
Edited by Louis J. Thibodeaux and Donald Mackay, renowned experts in this field, the Handbook of Chemical Mass Transport in the Environment covers those processes which are critically important for assessing chemical fate, exposure, and risk. In a comprehensive and authoritative format, this unique handbook provides environmental chemists, geoscientists, engineers, and modelers with the essential capabilities to understand and quantify transport. In addition, it offers a one-stop resource on environmental mass transfer and mass transport coefficient estimation methods for all genres.
The book begins by discussing mass transport fundamentals from an environmental perspective. It introduces the concept of mobility ― key to environmental fate, since transport must occur prior to any reaction or partitioning within the natural multimedia compartments. The fugacity approach to environmental mass transfer and the conventional approach are examined. This is followed by a description of the individual mass transport processes and the appropriate flux equations required for a quantitative expression. The editors have identified 41 individual processes believed to be the most environmentally significant, which form the basis for the remainder of the book
Using a consistent format for easy reference, each chapter:
The final chapter presents the editors’ insight into future needs and emerging priorities. Accessible and relevant to a broad range of science and engineering users, this volume captures the state of the transport science and practice in this critical area.

Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Focusing on theory, correlations, and predictive methods, this new handbook addresses major data requirements for assessing environmental fate, in particular rates of transport between air, water, and soil. This book presents the fundamentals of mass transport and provides detailed discussions of individual transport processes and individual mass-transport coefficients. With contributions from leading experts in each subject, it also includes tables that contain transport parameter ranges for typical, defined environmental conditions. This text complements the classic Handbook of Property Estimation Methods for Chemicals, known as Lymana (TM)s Handbook, also available from CRC Press. Seller Inventory # 9781420047554
