Inhaltsangabe

This book is composed of eight chapters. Chapter One presents a general introduction to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and their effects on health and environment. Chapter Two focuses on the effects of POPs on the environment, including their distribution across different media and the influence of temperature on their behavior. Chapter Three discusses the effects of persistent organic pollutants on air, while Chapter Four examines their impacts on soil and sediments. Chapter Five describes the long-range transport of POPs and their persistence in mountainous regions. Chapter Six addresses the partitioning of POPs among different environmental media. Chapter Seven explores the lipophilicity and biomagnification of POPs across different ecosystems. Finally, Chapter Eight presents the monitoring, control, and mitigation of persistent organic pollutants.
