Environmental chemistry by NPTEL

This NPTEL online lecture series will go through an in-depth discussion on environmental chemistry, especially with respect to atmospheric composition, the behavior of contaminants, and natural degradation pathways. Lectures cover control techniques in air pollution, the major sources of water pollution, and the processes of water treatment. In addition, the lecture deals with soil pollution: its causes, effects, and remedial measures. Special attention is accorded to contaminants and their interactions with the environment, so this is a great book for students and researchers alike, interested in knowing the influence of chemical processes on the environment and how these can be abated through technological and chemical means.

Lecture Notes On Environmental Science

This lecture note covers most of the core aspects of environmental science, focusing on pollution and waste management: air pollution, water pollution, and treatment and methods of water treatment both as a theoretical background and real-life insights. This includes oil contamination in both freshwater and marine waters, where a discussion of effects and how to treat oil spills comes into play. A section on Hazardous Waste discusses sources, disposal methods, and impact on the environment. That's helpful for a student or environmental scientist interested in discussing pollution problems but also possible solutions.

Chemicals in the Environment Toxicology and Public Health

This note tackles the very complex issue of the relationship between environmental chemicals and human health. It explores epidemiological approaches to disease causation, biostatistical methods for evaluating chemical exposure, and the effects of chemical reactions within the body. The content covers risk assessment techniques used in the U.S. for regulatory decision-making and public health policy. It is a must for students in the fields of toxicology, environmental health, and public health: it offers a challenging examination of interactions between environmental chemicals and human biology and the approaches used to evaluate and counteract their risks.
