A timely addition to the literature, this book highlights the desorption/release mechanisms for the purpose of resolving remediation dilemmas. It gives readers the added advantage of case studies at both the microscopic and macroscopic scales and provides both experimental and numerical investigations. With contributions from an international panel of authors, Heavy Metals Release in Soils fills a gap in the knowledge currently found in publications concerned with subsurface contaminant fate and transport processes. Appropriate for graduate level students and scientists in environmental engineering, it will also appeal to managers and regulators.

Soil Physical Chemistry, Second Edition takes up where the last edition left off. With comprehensive and contemporary discussions on equilibrium and kinetic aspects of major soil chemical processes and reactions this excellent text/reference presents new chapters on precipitation/dissolution, modeling of adsorption reactions at the mineral/water interface, and the chemistry of humic substances. An emphasis is placed on understanding soil chemical reactions from a microscopic point of view and rigorous theoretical developments such as the use of modern in situ surface chemical probes such as x-ray adsorption fine structure (XAFS), Fournier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies, and SPMs.
