CHEMISTRY for ENVIRONMENTAL and EARTH SCIENCE
Tackling environmental issues such as global warming, ozone depletion, acid rain, water pollution, and soil contamination requires an understanding of the underlying science and chemistry of these processes in real-world systems and situations. Chemistry for Environmental and Earth Science provides a student-friendly introduction to the basic chemistry used for the mitigation, remediation, and elimination of pollutants.
Written and organized in a style that is accessible to science as well as non-science majors, this textbook divides its content into four intuitive chapters: Fire, Earth, Water, and Air. The first chapter explain classical consepts in chemistry; subsequent chapters focus on the chemistry relating to the geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere-including the chemical aspects of soil, Water, and air pollution, respectively.
