This book provides estimation methods for determining a number of physicochemical, biological, and toxicological parameters for common environmentally active chemicals. It helps readers find the right combination of estimation methods to meet the demands for a defined accuracy in various analytical or field situations. Detailed directions for using the enclosed WinTox software to calculate estimations and how to improve the accuracy of those estimations are given.-- Includes WinTox software, a fast and easy-to-use estimation tool-- Covers temperature and pressure properties, solubility data, Henry's constants, adsorption and exchange coefficients, chemical degradation processes, and molecular connectivity-- Gives examples of how to obtain accurate estimates for 12 benchmark chemicals-- Proposes a procedure to be generally applied in solving ecotoxicological management problems-- Provides recommendations on how to find the most useful modeling approach in combination with a selection of parameter estimation methods discussed in the book-- Contains helpful appendices that include definitions and tables that are referred to throughout the text
Industry Reviews
"Such methods are necessary because data cannot be obtained on many of the 100,000 potentially threatening synthetic chemicals. As a single source of this kind of information, the book is excellent... An excellent resource for graduate students, faculty, researchers, and professionals." -CHOICE
