This is the first book aimed at development of a common language among scientists working in the field
of humic research and environmental engineers specialized in remediation technologies. In pursuing this goal,
the engineer is provided with sufficient information on the basics and state of the art of humic research pertinent to
remediation. For the interested scientist, this text provides sufficient information on the methods, needs, and limitations
of existing remediation technologies, and on the latest developments in applied humic research.
A novel approach has been adopted to categorize the interactions encountered between humics, ecotoxicants,
and living organisms in a polluted environment in the context of remediation chemistry. The volume pays particular
attention to in situ remediation as the most viable option for the application of humics. The content of this
book will be of interest to scientists and engineers as well as environmental chemists, analytical chemists, applied
microbiologists, soil scientists, geochemists and environmental engineers.
