Beskrivning

This volume reviews recent advances in isolation techniques, ion binding theory and biological activity in the aquatic and terrestrial environments as well as the formation of mutagenic compounds from chlorination. Additional essays describe current research on isolation, fractionation and characterization, biological and chemical transformation and degradation, complex formation and interactions with solids, and the halogenation of humic substances.
