Overview

Chemistry for Environmental Engineering and Science, Fifth Edition, is the definitive text for senior and graduate environmental engineering and science students who are taking a chemistry course. This edition has been thoroughly updated to coincide with current environmental engineering practice. Revised and new problems and examples appear throughout the text.

Chemistry for Environmental Engineering and Science is divided into a chemistry fundamentals section and an applications section. In this new edition, the authors have retained the thorough, yet concise, coverage of basic chemical principles from general, physical, equilibrium, organic, biochemistry, colloid, and nuclear chemistry. In addition, the authors have retained their classic two-fold approach of (1) focusing on the aspects of chemistry that are particularly valuable for solving environmental problems, and (2) laying the groundwork for understanding water and wastewater analysis—a fundamental basis of environmental engineering practice and research.
