This thesis provides a novel methodological basis for mechanistically understanding the dynamics of chemicals in products (CiPs) in the anthroposphere and physical environment and establishes a modeling continuum from production of a chemical to its concentrations in various environmental compartments. Using this framework, the thesis investigates how CiPs are transported and transformed and how they accumulate in the global environment. Furthermore, it identifies the measures needed to minimize their adverse effects on the environment and human society. It serves as an invaluable, interdisciplinary reference resource for industrial ecologists, environmental chemists and decision-makers involved in environmentally sound management of CiPs and associated waste.

THIS BOOK IS A RESULT OF THE FOURTH PELLSTON ENVIRONMENTAL WORKSHOP, HELD AUGUST 16-21, 1981. THIS WORKSHOP AND PREVIOUS MEETINGS HAVE EXAMINED METHODS OF ASSESSING HAZARDS OF CHEMICALS IN THE AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT. HAZARD ASSESSMENT, IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED, REQUIRES AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CONCENTRATION OF CHEMICALS CAUSING AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON AQUATIC LIFE AND ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE CONCENTRATIONS. MATHEMATICAL ENVIRONMENTAL FATE MODELS ARE SUGGESTED AS A TOOL FOR PREDICTING ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE CONCENTRATIONS OF CHEMICALS. THIS BOOK PRESENTS A STATE OF THE ART OVERVIEW OF THE USE OF THESE MODELS FOR DECISION MAKERS IN ASSESSING THE HAZARDS OF CHEMICALS IN THE AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT. AUTHORS SUMMARY ABRIDGED.

This volume focuses on modelling the fate of chemicals in the environment and the human body to arrive at an integrated exposure assessment. It covers five broad topics, namely: future challenges in exposure assessment; the evolution of human health and environmental risk assessment; standard documentation for exposure models; modelling different environmental components (i.e. surface waters, atmosphere, soil, groundwater, plants, aquatic organisms and mammals); and the fate of contaminants in humans. This work draws on the authors’ and editors’ extensive experience and a range of different research activities, including case studies, that have led to the development of MERLIN-Expo, a standardised software package for simulating the fate of chemicals in the main environmental systems and in the human body in an integrated manner. It will be of considerable interest to researchers and students, risk managers, and policy- and decision-makers whose work involves environmental protection and human health.

Environmental Modeling, Second Edition combines engineering transport fundamentals and equilibrium aquatic chemistry. It brings a uniquely contemporary perspective to the assessment of environmental quality. In addressing key questions about fate, transport, and long-term effects of chemical pollutants in the environment, this inherently practical book gives readers the important tools they need to develop and solve their own mathematical models. The book contains detailed examples from a wide range of crucial water quality areas: conventional pollutants in rivers, eutrophication of lakes, and toxic organic chemicals and heavy metals in both surface and groundwaters.

When a synthetic chemical is released into the environment it may be degraded by abiotic and biotic processes. These degradation processes usually involve a cascade of reactions resulting in the formation of a number of transformation products. While we usually know a great deal about the environmental properties, fate and effects of parent synthetic chemicals, our understanding of the impacts of transformation products is much less developed. As such, this volume brings together chapters from leading researchers in the field of transformation products in the environment and describes how these products are formed, how they move through the environment, and their environmental effects. The book also presents modelling and analytical approaches for understanding the occurrence, fate and effects of transformation products in the environment. It is of interest to scientists in academia, the chemicals industry and regulators, as well as graduate students in Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology.

Ecotoxicology Modeling is a comprehensive and well-documented text providing a collection of computational methods to the ecotoxicologists primarily interested in the study of the adverse effects of chemicals, their mechanisms of action and/or their environmental fate and behavior. Avoiding mathematical jargon, the book presents numerous case studies to enable the reader to understand the interest but also the limitations of linear and nonlinear models in ecotoxicology. Written by an international team of scientists, Ecotoxicology Modeling is of primary interest to those whose research or professional activity is directly concerned with the development and application of models in ecotoxicology. It is also intended to provide the graduate and post-graduate students with a clear and accessible text covering the main types of modeling approaches used in environmental sciences.
