Produktbeschreibung

This book reviews the latest advances in mass spectrometry for detecting environmental pollutants. With high-resolution mass spectrometry instruments becoming more accessible in research labs, scientists can now expand their analytical capabilities, establishing non-target strategies to identify priority pollutants and uncover new potentially hazardous compounds in various environmental compartments. In this book, readers will find a range of critical topics, including the use of ion mobility as a third dimension for compound confirmation in environmental samples, and the integration of high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis with market data to prioritize environmental contaminants. The book also explores effect-directed methods combined with non-target screening for identifying toxic transformation products, and the combination of passive sampling with non-target analysis for comprehensive environmental assessments. Additionally, it covers screening strategies for disinfection byproducts in drinking water and the human chemical exposome, providing insights into the quantitation of non-target data and the discovery of transformation byproducts of emerging contaminants. Given its breadth, this book is an essential resource for scientists addressing environmental pollution, students and academics in environmental analytical chemistry, and researchers focused on water, soil, and air studies. Environmental managers and engineers designing novel pollution remediation systems will find innovative strategies to advance their work. By focusing on priority pollutants and novel screening strategies, this book equips readers with the knowledge to tackle pressing environmental challenges.
