Isolation of Soil Organic Matter for Adsorption of Chlorinated Phenols.

      Аннотация: This book was written and edited by erudite scholars of excellent research skills and academic records. As authors of over 60 research articles, this authors have done justice to the subject matter. The book explains how various fractions of soil organic matter are isolated and subsequently used for the sorption of four main chlorinated phenol. The fractions of soil organic matter were characterized and using some of the key isotherm models, the contribution of the natural organic matter to the overall sorptive capacity of the soils was determined. The behaviour of the chlorinated compounds was also explained based on their physico-chemical properties and there varying degree of binding strength and capacity to the surface of the fractions of organic matter was also adequately scientifically justified. This book is good for teaching and research for all academic levels and training and shed-lights into soil chemistry, Environmental toxicity of Chlorinated phenol, and Pollution monitoring and control.
