With environmental issues of increasing global concern to both the public and governments, there is growing interest in scientific research that will allow us to predict, prevent and resolve environmental problems. This series recognises the pivotal role of chemistry in understanding the effects of pollution, climate change and natural processes. The titles deliver up-to-date and critical perspectives on the fate, behaviour and interactions of chemicals and pollutants (both natural and man-made) in the environment. The books in this series provide an accessible reference for academics, industrialists and postgraduates working in environmental chemistry, environmental engineering and remediation technology.
