| Abstract | In the assessment of health risk from pollutant exposure, it is important for the modeler to know the reliability of literature values that are needed for estimating the fate of toxic substances in the environment. Since literature values, in general, are of unknown reliability, evaluation criteria were developed for twelve rate and equilibrium constants used in environment modeling. These evaluation criteria also can be used to assess the reliability of literature values for other properties. (Copyright (c) 1986 Gordon and Breach Science Publishers, Inc.) |
