Inhaltsangabe

This is a two volume set aimed at examining persistent, bioaccumulative, toxic chemicals that undergo slow environmental degradation in air, water, and soil, bioaccumulate in fish and other organisms, and exhibit a high degree of toxicity. In this volume chapters are devoted to persistence, modeling, and new chemicals. They also cover a broad international perspective on measured and calculated properties of PBTs and how these can be/are being used by governments, national, international organizations and industry to select candidate chemicals for possible control. Specific PBTs are highlighted including PCBs, mercury, dioxin, chlorinated paraffins, alkylphenols, synthetic musk fragrances, polychlorinated napthalenes and polybrominated biphenyl ethers.
