Description : Inorganic Contaminants and Radionuclides is a single reference covering common inorganic contaminants in detail, including their distribution in the environment, challenges linked to management, geogenic sources, anthropogenic sources, exposure and effects, international agreements and legislation relating to the contaminant, remediation options, and global case studies. This clear, consistent organization makes it a valuable resource for researchers, students, and practitioners working in environmental science, environmental management, and environmental engineering alike._x000D_ One of the major constraints to assessing and remediating contaminated sites is the lack of awareness of the extent and severity of contaminated sites amongst the community, regulators, policymakers, industry operators, university graduates and environmental managers. Inorganic Contaminants and Radionuclides provides summaries of contaminated sites and key details about the contaminants for a more comprehensive understanding that can improve remediation and management practices.
