Chemical Property Estimation: Theory and Application
Editorial Reviews
Review
Baum offers one of only a few resources on the subject, clearly the most up-to-date... an ambitious effort to compile the theory and application of chemical estimation methods... He fills the gap where measured data on the properties of an ever-increasing number of chemicals in use are absent, thus giving environmental engineers, health and safety scientists, and other applications-oriented professionals a firmer basis on which to make evaluations, predictions, or decisions.

Book Description
Chemical Property Estimation describes modern methods of estimating chemical properties, methods which cost much less than traditional laboratory techniques and are sufficiently accurate for most environmental applications. Estimation methods are used to screen chemicals for testing, design monitoring and analysis methods, design clean-up procedures, and verify experimental measurements. The book discusses key methods for estimating chemical properties and considers their relative strenths and weaknesses. Several chapters are devoted to the partitioning of chemicals between air, water, soil, and biota; and properties such as solubility, vapor pressure, and chemical transport.
