Notes Includes bibliographical references and index.
Contents Notes General topic and overview -- Background knowledge -- Background knowledge on organic chemicals -- The amazing world of anthropogenic organic chemicals -- Background thermodynamics, equilibrium partitioning and acidity constants -- Earth systems and compartments -- Environmental systems : physical processes and mathematical modeling -- Equilibrium partitioning in well-defined systems -- Partitioning between bulk phases : general aspects and modeling approaches -- Vapor pressure -- Solubility and activity coefficient in water; air-water partition constant -- Organic liquid-air and organic liquid-water partitioning -- Partitioning of nonionic organic compounds between well-defined surfaces and air on water -- Equilibrium partitioning in environmental systems -- General introduction sorption processes -- Sorption from water to natural organic matter (NOM) -- Sorption of ionic organic compounds to charged surfaces -- Aerosol-air partitioning : dry and wet deposition of organic pollutants -- Equilibrium partitioning from water and air to biota -- Mass transfer processes in environmental systems -- Random motion, molecular and turbulent diffusivity -- Transport at boundaries -- Air-water exchange -- Interfaces involving solids -- Transformation processes -- Background knowledge on transformation reactions of organic pollutants -- Hydrolysis and reactions with other nucleophiles -- Redox reactions -- Direct photolysis in aquatic systems -- Indirect photolysis : reactions with photooxidants in natural waters and in the atmosphere -- Biotransformations -- Assessing transformation processes using compound-specific isotope analysis (CSIA) -- Putting everything together -- Exposure assessment of organic pollutants using simple modeling approaches. Focuses on the molecular processes and macroscopic transport phenomena that determine the spatiotemporal distributions of organic chemicals released into the environment; this knowledge is then applied to quantitatively assess the fates of those chemicals in natural and engineered systems.
