Includes bibliographical references.
Contents Experiments.- Water characterization.- Dissolved oxygen in water.- Alkalinity and buffering capacity of water.- Aqueous carbonate equilibria and water corrosiveness.- The point of zero charge of oxides.- Experimental transitions in E vs. pH (or Pourbaix) diagrams.- Air oxidation of metal ions.- Photoassisted reduction of metal complexes.- Anionic detergents and o-phosphates in water.- Halogenated hydrocarbons and the ozone layer depletion.- Acid mine (or acid rock) drainage.- Electrochemical treatment of gas pollutants.- Electrochemical treatment of liquid wastes.- Electrochemical treatment of polluted soils.- Removal of nitric oxide by complex formation.- Photocatalytic remediation of pollutants.- Chemical mineralization of pollutants through the Fenton reaction.- Production and analysis of chloramines.- Production and analysis of chlorine dioxide.- Metal ion recovery by cementation.- Green chemistry: The recovery and reuse of sulfur dioxide.- Microorganisms in soil, water and air.- Toxicity assay using bacterial growth.- Wastewater disinfection.- Appendix I: Answers to selected problems from the experiments.- Appendix II: Analytically-oriented environmental chemistry experiments in the literature.
This book presents chemical analyses of the most pressing waste, pollution, and resource problems for the undergraduate or graduate student. Its distinctive holistic approach provides a solid introduction to theory as well as a practical laboratory manual detailing beginning and advanced experimental applications. It presents laboratory procedures at microscale conditions, for minimum waste and maximum economy.
