Physical-Chemical Properties and Environmental Fate Handbook on CD-ROM

Assessing chemical fate locally, regionally, and globally is complicated by the large (and increasing) number of chemicals of potential concern, by uncertainties in their physical-chemical properties, and by lack of knowledge of prevailing environmental conditions. Reported values of properties often conflict. Some are measured accurately, some approximately, and some estimated by various correlation schemes from molecular structure. In some cases, units or chemical identity are wrongly reported. When you need to use such data, you must be able to select the "best" or "right" values. Physical-Chemical Properties and Environmental Fate Handbook on CD-ROM brings together physical-chemical data for similarly structured groups of chemical substances which influence their fate in the multimedia environment of air, water, soils, sediments, and resident biota. This continually updated CD-ROM synthesizes the comprehensive five-volume set of the Illustrated Handbook of Physical-Chemical Properties and Environmental Fate for Organic Chemicals - and includes 100 new compounds -covering:monoaromatic hydrocarbons, chlorobenzenes, and PCBspolynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, polychlorinated dioxins, and dibenzofuransvolatile organic chemicalsoxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur-containing compoundspesticides
