Summary "Determination of Organic Substances in Natural and Treated Waters provides a comprehensive description of organic compounds in all natural and treated water types. The book opens with a brief discussion of current analytical techniques used in the determination of organics in water. Methods are provided in broad outline, with guidance on their applicability, their comparative advantages and disadvantages, possible interferences, sensitivity and detection levels. A series of tables offers the user quick access to the relevant compound/water types."--BOOK JACKET. "This book is an essential reference for analytical chemists working in industry, the water utilities, government and non-government organizations and regulatory agencies, and chemical companies producing aqueous effluents, and for environmental and analytical consultants."--BOOK JACKET
