Aquatic Redox Chemistry
Paul G. Tratnyek, Timothy J. Grundl, and Stefan B. Haderlein (eds.)
2011, American Chemical Society Symposium Series, Vol. 1071, 632 pp.

Oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions are among the most important and interesting chemical reactions that occur in aquatic environmental systems, which include soils, sediments, aquifers, rivers, lakes, estuaries, water treatment and distribution systems, etc. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of aquatic redox chemistry through chapters contributed by many of the leading investigators in this field. Each chapter summarizes core concepts and reports important new developments in areas of priority or emerging interest, such as the prediction of redox reaction rates and mechanisms, role of redox shuttles in biogeochemistry, interfacial properties of redox active minerals, role of reactive oxygen species in sunlit surface waters, water treatment technologies based on oxidation or reduction, and coupling of redox with transport processes. Fundamental and advanced aspects of each topic are balanced such that the volume can serve as teaching material for upper level students in environmental science or engineering, as well as being a valuable resource for experienced scientists and practitioners.

Copies can be ordered from the Oxford University Press, Amazon, or independent booksellers like Powells Books. PDFs of individual chapter can be obtained from the ACS Books website. Bibliographic data for all the chapters (in EndNote format) is available from here.
