Transport & Fate of Chemicals in Soils: Principles & Applications
Autor H. Magdi Selimen Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 sep 2014
The book provides the basic framework of the principals governing the sorption and transport of chemicalsin soils. It focuses on physical processes such as fractured media, multiregion, multiple porosities, and heterogeneity and effect of scale as well as chemical processes such as nonlinear kinetics, release and desorption hysteresis, multisite and multireaction reactions, and competitive-type reactions. The coverage also includes details of sorption behavior of chemicals with soil matrix surfaces as well the integration of sorption characteristics with mechanisms that govern solute transport in soils. The discussions of applications of the principles of sorption and transport are not restricted to contaminants, but also include nitrogen, phosphorus, and trace elements including essential micronutrients, heavy metals, military explosives, pesticides, and radionuclides.
Written in a very clear and easy-to-follow language by a pioneer in soil science, this book details the basic framework of the physical and chemical processes governing the transport of contaminants, trace elements, and heavy metals in soils. Highly practical, it includes laboratory methods, examples, and empirical formulations. The approach taken by the author gives you not only the fundamentals of understanding of reactive chemicals retention and their transport in soils and aquifers, but practical guidance you can put to immediate use in designing experiments and collecting data.

Recenzii
"Highly practical… includes laboratory methods, examples, and empirical formulations."
—International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry, 2015
"[This] new book by H. Magdi Selim, makes an important contribution to the available literature concerning the fate and transport of solutes in the soil environment. The text is ideal for use in both graduate and undergraduate instruction in a range of disciplines beyond soil science, and as a standard reference guide for many researchers and environmental practitioners interested in this field. A unique aspect of the text is the discussion of laboratory methods by which solute transport and partitioning properties are obtained, rather than focusing solely on an understanding of conceptual issues and modeling approaches."
—John C. Seaman, Savannah River Eco. Lab, University of Georgia, Athens, USA
"The significance and extent of chemicals in our environment demand concerted attention for purposes of understanding, management, and remediation. This book contributes greatly to each of these purposes. …Professor Selim has written this important book, which I highly recommend to all scientists and engineers interested in chemicals in the natural environment."
—Robert Horton, Iowa State University, Ames, USA

"… invaluable to students and professionals in soil and environmental sciences, environmental engineering, and hydrology, and other allied fields. Clear discussions on contaminant processes are included as well as kinetic based models that can be used to predict contaminant fate and transport over various temporal scales. In addition to principles, that are included for each topic, applications, to relate the results to real world scenarios, are presented. I highly recommend this timely and important book."
— Donald L. Sparks, Director, Delaware Environmental Institute (DENIN), University of Delaware
"… a comprehensive introduction and overview on physico-chemical approaches used to describe and model solute transport in soils and how it is affected by sorption to the solid matrix and exchange among pore space domains of contrasting mobility. The value of the book is furthermore greatly enhanced by the endeavor of the author to link the presented concepts to application. In addition to describing and discussing the methods used to determine model parameters, the book also gives a wealth of data relating parameter values to soil types and properties. Thus, it is not only most useful for students and advanced scientists looking for a concise introduction into soil solute sorption and transport principles and an overview over the state of the art in this field, but is also for practitioners as a valuable source of information needed for practical applications of transport models."

Descriere
This book provides the fundamentals for the understanding of reactive chemicals retention and their transport in soils and aquifers. The book offers the first comprehensive treatment with supporting examples of mathematical models that describe contaminants reactivity and transport in soils and aquifers. It is also a practical guide for designing experiments and collecting data that focuses on characterizing retention as well as release kinetic reactions in soils and contaminant transport experiments in the laboratory, greenhouse (column) and in the field.
