Description:
The Environmental Research Laboratory, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Athens GA, is best known by vibrational spectroscopists as the laboratory where much of the pioneering work on the development of a sensitive, real-time gas chromatograph/Fourier transform infrared system was conducted. Current work in vibrational spectroscopy involves two applications. One area involves the identification of unlisted pollutants--a conventional but somewhat specialized, usage. The second area, a more novel application of vibrational spectroscopy and one for which few related studies have been reported, involves the prediction of environmental fate constants for chemicals.
