By: Sawyer, Clair NContributor(s): Parkin, Gene F | McCarty, Perry LMaterial type: TextTextPublication details: New York : McGraw-Hill, ©1994Edition: 4th EditionDescription: xiii, 658 p. : illustrationsISBN: 9780071139083; 0071139087; 9780070549784; 0070549788Subject(s): Environmental chemistry | Environmental chemistry -- Laboratory manuals | Sanitary engineering | Sanitary engineering -- Laboratory manualsDDC classification: 628.0154
Contents:
Part 1 Fundamentals of chemistry for environmental engineering: basic concepts from general chemistry; basic concepts from physical chemistry; basic concepts from equilibrium chemistry; basic concepts from organic chemistry; biochemistry; colloid chemistry; nuclear chemistry. Part 2 Wastewater and wastewater analysis: basic concepts form quantitative analysis; instrumental methods of analysis; turbidity; colour; standard solutions; pH; acidity; alkalinity; hardness; disinfection; chlorides; dissolved oxygen; biochemical oxygen demand; chemical oxygen demand; nitrogen; residue; iron and magnganese; flouride; sulfate; phosphorous and phosphate; grease; volatile acids; volatile organics; trace inorganics.
Summary: The purpose of this text is twofold: to bring into focus aspects of chemistry which are particularly valuable to environmental engineering practice, and to lay a groundwork of understanding in the area of specialized quantitative analysis, commonly referred to as water and wastewater analysis.
