CHEM 3050U – Environmental Chemistry


Major chemical pollutants: their sources, the environmental reactions they undergo, and how they become distributed throughout the environment. Topics will be chosen from the major environmental toxicants: pesticides, natural products, inorganics, and industrial chemicals. The course explores the principal means of chemical and biological degradation of toxicants, and the processes by which chemicals move, concentrate, and dissipate. The details of the chemistry occurring in the earth’s atmosphere are examined.
