Environmental Chemicals Desk Reference is a concise version of the widely read Agrochemicals Desk Reference and Groundwater Chemicals Desk Reference. This up-to-date volume was inspired by the need for a combination of the material in both references, together with the large number of research publications and the continued interest in the fate, transport, and remediation of hazardous substances. Much new data has been added to this unique edition, including global legislation (REACH) and sustainability, thereby reflecting the wealth of literature in the field. Featured are environmental and physical/chemical data on more than 200 compounds, including pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides.
'Here are three reasons that I love the Environmental Chemical Desk Reference:
As a Licensed Site Remediation Professional, my goal is to gather accurate, reliable, and complete information efficiently and effectively. The Environmental Chemical Desk Reference provides me trustworthy information, thus making the best use of my time. It includes key parameters for fate and transport modeling and also lists possible sources. It is one of my favorite books on my shelf.
The Environmental Chemical Desk Reference is an excellent source for identifying sources and uses for a chemical. While looking for uses of a chemical, I may glance at other properties (e.g., chemical structure, density, and ionization potential, Henry’s law constant, and soil organic carbon/water partition coefficient). Because a wealth of environmental information is presented in a very organized way, I get more than I am looking for.
For fate and transport modeling of a chemical, selection of the source of information is under my control; information obtained from a well-known source, like Environmental Chemical Desk Reference, provides added assurance. I don’t need to verify the organization providing the information.'
