Provides a reference on the polar contaminant classes and their behavior in the whole water cycle includes, among others, industrial chemicals, consumer products, polar herbicides and pharmaceuticals. This book covers properties, pollution sources, occurrence in wastewater, surface water, and groundwater as well as water treatment aspects.
This first in-depth and comprehensive reference on the most pertinent polar contaminant classes and their behavior in the whole water cycle includes, among others, industrial chemicals, consumer products, polar herbicides and pharmaceuticals. All chapters are uniformly structured, covering properties, pollution sources, occurrence in wastewater, surface water, and groundwater as well as water treatment aspects, while ecotoxicological and assessment aspects are also covered. Among the authors are leading experts in their relevant fields, many of whom provide here groundbreaking research results. The result is an up-to-date information source for researchers and professionals working in water quality monitoring, water supply, or wastewater treatment, as well as environmental and water chemists, geochemists, ecologists, chemists and engineers.

Prof. M. Jekel is full professor for: Water Quality Control, Technical University of Berlin, Germany and also President of German Water Chemical Society; Chairman of DVGW Technical Committee on Water Treatment; Chairman of IWA Specialist Group on Particle Separation; Chairman of research network "Water in Urban Areas" of the Technical University Berlin; Editor in chief of "Vom Wasser Das Journal". Dr. Thorsten Reemtsma is Senior Researcher at the Department of Water Quality Control and Lecturer for Environmental Chemistry at the Technical University of Berlin.
