Humic Substances
The biomaterials of humic substances are found in animals, coals, plants, sediments, soils, and waters. The abilities of these remarkable materials to buffer pH, retain water, be photoactive, be redox catalysts, sorb solutes, and bind metals are being more clearly understood by chemists, agronomists, and others. Ghabbour and Davies (both of Northeastern U., Boston) present 31 contributions from the latest humic substances seminar held in March of 2001. The papers cover a range of topics, including a look at the history of the study of the substances, discussions of the principles behind the study, the use of various kinds of methods to collect information, models and theories of humic structures, the process of imaging humic structures, commercial applications derived from coals, and agricultural applications for antimutagenesis. c.

Reaction Mechanisms in Environmental Organic Chemistry
Reaction Mechanisms in Environmental Organic Chemistry classifies and organizes the reactions of environmentally important organic compounds using concepts and data drawn from traditional mechanistic and physical organic chemistry. It will help readers understand these reactions and their importance for the environmental fates or organic compounds of many types. The book has a molecular and mechanistic emphasis, and it is organized by reaction type. Organic molecules and their fates are examined in an ecosystem context. Their reactions are discussed in terms that organic chemists would use. The book will benefit organic chemists, environmental engineers, water treatment professionals, hazardous waste specialists, and biologists. Although conceived as a comprehensive monograph, the book could also be used as a text or reference for environmental chemistry classes at the undergraduate or graduate level.
Handbook of Water Analysis
This work details water sampling and preservation methods by enumerating the different ways to measure physical, chemical, organoleptical, and radiological characteristics. It provides step-by-step descriptions of separation, residue determination, and cleanup techniques for a variety of fresh- and salt-waters. It also discusses information regarding the analysis and detection of bacteria and algae.
