Features: Based on significant revisions to the previous three editions, this book comprehensively elaborates on chemical pollution issues in the four environmental spheres: atmosphere, water bodies, soil, and biosphere. It focuses on the environmental chemical properties of various important inorganic and organic pollutants, as well as their treatment and analytical techniques. The book also provides discussions on some global or universally significant environmental chemistry issues. This revised edition includes new chapters such as "An Overview of Environmental Analysis and Monitoring," "Environmental Hormones," and "Indoor Environmental Pollution." To broaden readers' knowledge, each chapter includes a "Knowledge Link" section. This book can serve as a textbook for relevant disciplines in engineering colleges and universities (e.g., environmental science, chemistry, chemical engineering, civil engineering, safety, agriculture and forestry, ecology, etc.), as well as a reference for environmental science researchers and environmental protection technicians.
