Roger N. Reeve Book order

This book explores analytical methods for characterizing environmental samples, detailing the applications of gas and liquid chromatography, IR spectroscopy, and X-ray fluorescence in soil, water, and air analysis, as well as pollutant monitoring. It also provides up-to-date information on sampling strategies and extraction techniques.

The first part of the book introduces simple concepts pertinent to the study of the environment, what the term pollution means and the role of analytical chemistry. The second section deals with pollutant dispersion, reconcentration and final degradation--important to understand in order to set up an analytical monitoring scheme. Also covers the analysis of water, solid and atmospheric samples.
