Gain a firm foundation for planning and controlling successful natural water remediation projects. Engineers in general and environmental engineers in particular historically have focused on the technical aspects of natural water remediation for specific public and private projects. Natural Water Remediation considers topics such as metal ion solubility controls, pH, carbonate equilibria, adsorption reactions, redox reactions and the kinetics of oxygenation reactions which occur in natural water environments. Natural Water Remediation starts with the fundamentals of acid-base and redox chemistry to provide a better understanding of the natural system, with an eye to assessing the impact of outside environmental influences including the thermodynamics of aqueous systems and chemical reactions. These fundamentals are followed by topics such as the relationships among environmental factors and natural water (including biochemical factors, hydrologic cycles and sources of solutes in the atmosphere). Chemical thermodynamic models, as applied to natural water, are then discussed in some detail. This is quickly followed by self-contained applications concerning composition, quality measurement and analysis for river, lake, reservoir and groundwater sampling. Covers the fundamentals of acid-base and redox chemistry for Environmental EngineersFocuses on the practical uses of water, soil, mineral and bedrock chemistry and how they impact surface and groundwaterIncludes applications concerning composition, quality measurement and analysis for river, lake, reservoir and groundwater sampling INDICE: Part One: Metals Section One: Introduction Section Two: Environmental Organic Chemicals Part Two: Partitioning and Sorption Processes Section Three: Molecular Interactions, Partitioning, and Thermodynamics Section Four: Vapor Pressure Section Five: Aqueous Solubility and Activity Coefficients Section Six: Air Water and Air Organic Solvent Partitioning Section Seven: Organic Water Partitioning Section Eight: Organic Acids andBases Part Three: Sorption and Transformation Processes Section Nine: Sorption Processes Section Ten: Thermodynamic and Kinetics of Transformation Reactions Section Eleven: Hydrolysis and Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions Section Twelve: Redox Transformations Section Thirteen: Photochemical and Photocatalytic, Transformations Section Fourteen Biological Transformations
