Methods in Environmental Analysis : Water Soil and Air

Book are available on different aspects of pollution and environmental engineering, but literature and environmental engineering, but literature regarding methods of quantification of pollutants and characterization of water, soil and air is meager. This text is a compilation of some tested and widely used analytical methods of characterizing water, soil and air from environmental pollution point of view. The text is divided into sixteen chapters and two appendices dealing with procedures quantilying various physical. chemical and biological aspects. The introductory part of water soil and air as a component of environment is also included in a simple and explanatory manner to give better insight of the subject.
