Full Description

Our understanding of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs), their exposure pathways, and their impact on the environment and human health is constantly evolving and the list of new and emerging POPs is constantly changing. This book provides a comprehensive coverage of new and old hazardous chemicals, their physical and chemical properties, their breakdown products, their fate in the environment, and the environmental and human risk impact. It discusses global policies based on United Nations' FAO frameworks, explains the severity of contamination, and raises awareness on the assessment and remediation of contaminated sites in developed and developing countries.

Features

Provides a broad temporal perspective on POPs with contributions from a global team of experts.
Covers chemistry, toxicology, remediation, regulation, and conventions related to POPs.
Explains systematically the fate and behavior of POPs and their effect on the environment and ultimately the impact on human health.
Brings for the first time together information on global policies on POPs.
Includes case studies that detail assessment criteria of old and new POPs as well as remediation technologies.

This book is an excellent resource for professionals, researchers, academics, and students who work or study environmental risk assessment and remediation.
