ENAS 643a - TRANSPORT AND FATE OF ORGANIC CHEMICALS IN THE ENVIRONMENT

Description
Fundamental chemical and physical processes controlling the distribution, transport, and transformation of anthropogenic organic chemicals in aqueous environments including soils, sediments, and groundwater. It provides basic knowledge about the following: (a) the use of chemical and physical principles to quantify the thermodynamics and kinetics of individual processes, (b) the use of chemical structure to understand these processes at the molecular level, and (c) a framework for evaluating the relative importance of these processes so that the fate of a particular chemical in a particular environment may be predicted.
