Handbook of Chemical Mass Transport in the Environment

Focusing on theory, correlations, and predictive methods, Handbook of Estimation Methods for Chemical Mass Transport in the Environment addresses major data requirements for assessing environmental fate, in particular rates of transport between air, water, and soil. This book presents the fundamentals of mass transport and provides detailed discussions of individual transport processes and individual mass-transport coefficients. With contributions from leading experts in each subject, it also includes tables that contain transport parameter ranges for typical, defined environmental conditions. This text is complementary to the Handbook of Property Estimation Methods for Chemicals.

Louis J. Thibodeaux and Donald Mackay, renowned experts in this field, the Handbook of Chemical Mass Transport in the Environment covers those processes that are critically important for assessing chemical fate, exposure, and risk. In a comprehensive and authoritative format, this unique handbook provides environmental chemists, geoscientists, engineers, and modelers with the essential capabilities to understand and quantify transport. In addition, it offers a one-stop resource on environmental mass transfer and mass transport coefficient estimation methods for all genres.
