Recent Update on Organic Pollutants

Even a decade after the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) was signed, a large variety of organic chemicals still pose ecological hazards of top most priority. The expansion of information base on organic pollutants (OPs), environmental fate and effects, as well as the cleansing methods, is accompanied by a rise in importance of certain pollution sources, associated with possible generation of new hazards for humans and nature. This book provides an analytical and environmental update, and can be specifically important for engineers and experts.
