EV 310 - Fate and Transport of Chemicals in the Environment

Institution:

Colorado College

Subject:

Description:

This course builds upon the skills developed in environmental chemistry or physical chemistry, making use of kinetic and thermodynamic models to examine how chemical pollutants are transported in the environment. Either significant computer simulations or laboratory investigations based on recent journal articles from areas such as the kinetics of metal adsorption on model soils, equilibrium concentrations of pesticide residues in biota based on octanol-water partitioning, and transport modeling of air particulates from an urban environment are included. (Available on a tutorial basis with instructor's consent.) Prerequisite: Chemistry 342 or 366; or 210 and consent of instructor. (Not offered 2008-09.) 1 unit.
