With clear explanations, real-world examples and updated ancillary material, the 11th edition of Environmental Chemistry emphasizes the concepts essential to the practice of environmental science, technology and chemistry. The format and organization popular in preceding editions is used, including an approach based upon the five environmental spheres and the relationship of environmental chemistry to the key concepts of sustainability, industrial ecology and green chemistry. The new edition provides a comprehensive view of key environmental issues, and significantly looks at diseases and pandemics as an environmental problem influenced by other environmental concerns like climate change. 
Features: 
The most trusted and best-selling text for environmental chemistry has been fully updated and expanded once again 
The author has preserved the basic format with appropriate updates including a comprehensive overview of key environmental issues and concerns 
New to this important text is material on the threat of pathogens and disease, deadly past pandemics that killed millions, recently emerged diseases and the prospects for more environment threats related to disease 
This outstanding legacy appeals to a wide audience and can also be an ideal interdisciplinary book for graduate students with degrees in a variety of disciplines other than chemistry 
New! Long-awaited companion website featuring additional ancillary material

This book covers the emerging science of green chemistry, the practice of sustainable chemistry, at a basic level. An introductory chapter on sustainability science is followed by six chapters on basic chemistry including organic chemistry and biological chemistry. The remainder of the book discusses sustainability and green chemistry based upon five spheres of the environment: (1) Hydrosphere, (2) atmosphere, (3) geosphere, (4) biosphere, and (5) anthrosphere. The last two chapters cover (1) green chemistry in combatting terrorism and (2) the "ten commandments of sustainability" along with a brief discussion of some proposed measures to enhance sustainability.

Formally established by the EPA nearly 15 years ago, the concept of green chemistry is beginning to come of age. Although several books cover green chemistry and chemical engineering, none of them transfer green principles to science and technology in general and their impact on the future. Defining industrial ecology, Environmental Science and Technology: A Sustainable Approach to Green Science and Technology provides a general overview of green science and technology and their essential role in ensuring environmental sustainability. Written by a leading expert, the book provides the essential background for understanding green science and technology and how they relate to sustainability. In addition to the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere, and biosphere traditionally covered in environmental science books, this book is unique in recognizing the anthrosphere as a distinct sphere of the environment. The author explains how the anthrosphere can be designed and operated in a manner that does not degrade environmental quality and, in most favorable circumstances, may even enhance it. With the current emphasis shifting from end-of-pipe solutions to pollution prevention and control of resource consumption, green principles are increasingly moving into the mainstream. This book provides the foundation not only for understanding green science and technology, but also for taking its application to the next level.

Written to bridge the gap between toxicology and chemistry, this book concentrates on the chemical formulas, structures and reactions of toxic substances. The book provides brief introductions to toxicology, chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry, so that readers without substantial expertise in one or more areas can still understand the remainder of the book. To retain a chemical emphasis, the book is organized on the basis of classes of inorganic and organic substances. The book is aimed at toxicologists, chemists, engineers, industrial hygienists, research laboratory personnel dealing with hazardous and toxic substances, and people working on the disposal and elimination of hazardous substances.

Toxicological Chemistry

Dealing with natural environmental chemistry processes and pollution, this text outlines the chemistry process of species, air, water, soil, and the living environment. It includes a section on hazardous waste control and is aimed at undergraduate/graduate level courses.

Toxicological Chemistry, 2nd Edition provides an easy-to-understand general discussion of biological processes operating on environmental chemical species. It also focuses on the chemistry of toxic substances based on their interactions with biological tissue and living organisms. The book is designed to appeal to readers with diverse general backgrounds. It assumes only a minimal background in chemistry and none in biology or microbiology. Introductory material regarding these fields is presented in the first few chapters so that more sophisticated topics can be addressed throughout the remainder of the book. Detailed discussions about specific areas of research are avoided, although key references on major topics are provided for readers who require more in-depth information. Toxicological Chemistry, 2nd Edition is useful for anyone concerned with the biological fate and effects of chemicals. It is ideal as a general reference book, source of background material, or textbook for regulatory personnel, students, engineers with consulting firms, health and safety personnel, and others.
