"This book provides the fundamentals for the understanding of reactive chemicals retention and their transport in soils and aquifers. The book offers the first comprehensive treatment with supporting examples of mathematical models that describe contaminants reactivity and transport in soils and aquifers. It is also a practical guide for designing experiments and collecting data that focuses on characterizing retention as well as release kinetic reactions in soils and contaminant transport experiments in the laboratory, greenhouse (column) and in the field. "-- "Over the last four decades tremendous advances have been made toward the understanding of tranport characteristics of the transport contaminants in soils, as well as solutes and tracers in geological media. These advances were broad in nature and addressed physical and chemical processes that influence the behavior of solutes in porous media. Examples include nonlinear kinetics, release and desorption hysteresis, multisite and multireaction reactions, and competitive-type reactions. Examples that focus on physical processes include fractured media, multiregion, multiple porosities, and heterogeneity and effect of scale. This book provides the basic framework of the principals governing the sorption and transport of contaminants in soils. The physical and chemical processes presented above are the focus of this textbook. Details of sorption behavior of chemicals with soil matrix surfaces are presented, as well the integration of sorption characteristics with mechanisms that govern solute transport in soils. Applications of the principals of sorption and transport are not restricted to contaminants. Rather examples include tracers, phosphorus, and trace elements, including essential micronutrients, heavy metals, military explosives, pesticides, and radionuclides"-- During the last four decades, tremendous advances have been made towards the understanding of transport characteristics of contaminants in soils, solutes, and tracers in geological media. Transport & Fate of Chemicals in Soils: Principles & Applications offers a comprehensive treatment of the subject complete with supporting examples of mathematical models that describe contaminants reactivity and transport in soils and aquifers. This approach makes it a practical guide for designing experiments and collecting data that focus on characterizing retention as well as release kinetic reactions in soils and contaminant transport experiments in the laboratory, greenhouse), and in the field. The book provides the basic framework of the principals governing the sorption and transport of chemicalsin soils. It focuses on physical processes such as fractured media, multiregion, multiple porosities, and heterogeneity and effect of scale as well as chemical processes such as nonlinear kinetics, release and desorption hysteresis, multisite and multireaction reactions, and competitive-type reactions. The coverage also includes details of sorption behavior of chemicals with soil matrix surfaces as well the integration of sorption characteristics with mechanisms that govern solute transport in soils. The discussions of applications of the principles of sorption and transport are not restricted to contaminants, but also include nitrogen, phosphorus, and trace elements including essential micronutrients, heavy metals, military explosives, pesticides, and radionuclides. Written in a very clear and easy-to-follow language by a pioneer in soil science, this book details the basic framework of the physical and chemical processes governing the transport of contaminants, trace elements, and heavy metals in soils. Highly practical, it includes laboratory methods, examples, and empirical formulations. The approach taken by the author gives you not only the fundamentals of understanding of reactive chemicals retention and their transport in soils and aquifers, but practical guidance you can put to immediate use in designing experiments and collecting data.
