Book Description
Organometallic compounds occur in the environment as a result of anthropogenic and biogenic processes. Since organometals are often much more toxic than the corresponding inorganic forms of metals, it is important to be able to speciate the forms of metals in environmental samples at ultratrace levels. Chemical speciation methods, based on the use of chromatographic separations followed by element-selective detection, have been developed in our laboratories and elsewhere. These methods, described in part in this paper, are helping us to measure organometal species at their action levels (down to parts-per-trillion levels) in environmental matrices, leading to a better understanding of environmental occurrence, fate, effects, and transformation. New methods for nondestructive analysis of metal species on surfaces are under development.

Compilation of EPA's Sampling and Analysis Methods, Second Edition
Author: Lawrence H. Keith
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9781420050615
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1740
Book Description
The popular first edition of this book contained approximately 600 analyte/method summaries. This new edition contains twice as many new EPA-approved methods for testing and analyzing industrial chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, dioxins, and PCBs and is a printed version of the EPA's Sampling and Analysis Methods Database. Each analyte/method summary contains all of the information required to stand alone as a reference. Thus, in addition to a brief summary of each method, descriptions include required instrumentation, interferences, sampling containers, preservation techniques, maximum holding times, detection levels, accuracy, precision, quality control requirements, EPA reference, and, when available, EPA contacts with phone numbers. Each summarized report is a "stand-alone" document.

Comprehensive Organometallic Analysis
Author: T.R. Crompton
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9781461594994
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 910
Book Description
It is now some sixteen years since the author's first series of books on the analysis of organometallic compounds. Many developments in the subject have occurred since that time and a new book on the subject is now overdue. The present book aims to provide a comprehensive review of the subject. It covers not only all aspects of the analysis of organometallic compounds but also contains two additional chapters, dealing with environmental analysis and the use of chelates of metals in the determination of very low concentrations of organic metals. Whilst reviewing the literature for the present book, it was observed that whereas papers published prior to 1973 dealt almost exclusively with various forms of analysis, a high proportion of those published during the past ten years were concerned with the application of proven or newly developed methods to the determination of organometallic compounds in environmental samples such as water, air, soil, river and ocean sediments, fish life and biota samples. An increasing range of elements including mercury, lead, arsenic, tin, antimony, selenium and manganese are now being found in organically bound forms in the environment, some resulting from pollution, others formed in nature by bacterial processes. As many of these substances have appreciable implications to human and animal health and the ecosystem as a whole, it was considered that it would be timely to include a separate chapter in the book devoted entirely to this subject.

Determination of Organic Compounds in Soils, Sediments and Sludges
Author: T R Crompton
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780419252702
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
The first volume to comprehensively discuss the range of methods available for the analysis of organic compounds in soils, river and marine sediments and industrial sludges. It commences with a review of the instrumentation used in soil and sediment laboratories and indicates the types of organics that can be determined by each technique. Subsequent chapters discuss the analysis of various types of organics in a logical and systematic manner. It provides guidance on the applicability of techniques in certain environments, the advantages and disadvantages of using one method over another, likely interference, the sensitivity of particular techniques, and detection limits.

Heterogeneous Wastes Characterization
Author: Epa/Envir Syst Monit
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780849387203
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
Heterogenous Wastes Characterization Methods and Recommendations addresses the problems faced by investigators when attempting to characterize heterogenous wastes contaminated with hazardous chemicals and/or radionuclides. The book is the result of a workshop conducted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy to devise methods for cleaning up waste sites, including landfills and drum dumps, where these chemicals have been spilled or improperly stored. The book summarizes study planning tools, sampling design strategies, and field and laboratory methods now in use. It also identifies the advantages and disadvantages of each method. In addition, the book identifies areas that would benefit from methodological research or development or the adoption of new approaches. Pertinent regulatory definitions have been assembled and augmented with practical working definitions. Heterogenous Wastes Characterization Methods and Recommendations is essential for personnel who work with hazardous wastes or in sanitary engineering firms.
