About the Book

Interest in the occurrence and behaviour of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is increasing due to their adverse effects on the environment and human health. It is essential that information is made available on the various aspects of research on VOCs to enable better understanding and control of the various environmental and human health threats. The information in this book will be used to improve communication and understanding of the various approaches. In particular the potential and limitations of the described analytical methods will be essential in defining environmental studies and interpreting the results.

Table of Contents:
1 VOCs and the environment and public health—exposure.- 1.1 Introduction.- 1.2 Measurement methods.- 1.3 Human exposure.- 1.4 Body burden.- 1.5 Human health effects.- 1.6 Summary.- References.- 2 VOCs and the environment and public health—health effects.- 2.1 General introduction.- 2.2 Toxicokinetics and biotransformation.- 2.3 Introduction to toxicological studies.- References.- 3 VOCs and air pollution.- 3.1 Introduction.- 3.2 VOC emission.- 3.3 VOC effects.- 3.4 VOC measurement.- 3.5 Methods for VOC determination.- 3.6 Conclusions.- References.- 4 VOCs and water pollution.- 4.1 Introduction.- 4.2 Definition.- 4.3 Distribution in air, water and soil.- 4.4 Occurrence.- 4.5 Sources.- 4.6 Behaviour and fate of VOCs in aquatic systems.- 4.7 Environmental aspects of selected organohalogen compounds.- 4.8 Sampling of VOCs in water.- 4.9 Analysis of VOCs in water.- 4.10 Conclusions.- References.- 5 VOCs and soil pollution.- 5.1 Introduction.- 5.2 Sources of soil contamination with VOCs: relationship with other environmental compartments.- 5.3 Partitioning of VOCs in the soil.- 5.4 Transport of VOCs in the soil.- 5.5 The assessment of concentrations of VOCs in the soil.- 5.6 Soil pollution with VOCs: human health risks.- References.- 6 Future monitoring techniques for VOCs.- 6.1 Automated gas chromatographs (autoGCs).- 6.2 Open path monitoring of VOCs.- 6.3 Real-time and near real-time monitoring of VOCs.- 6.4 Passive sampling devices (PSDs) for VOCs.- 6.5 Sample containment and transport.- 6.6 Other important VOC monitoring method developments.- 6.7 Conclusions.- Equipment manufacturers.- References.- 7 VOCs and occupational health.- 7.1 Introduction.- 7.2 Sources.- 7.3 Exposure.- 7.4 Sampling.- 7.5 Health-based recommended exposure limits.- 7.6 Biological exposurelimits.- 7.7 Combined exposure to chemicals.- References.

Review :
This book is a contribution to improving communication between those in the search for solutions to the problems created by the presence of VOCs...Research, policy makers and officers concerned with public health and environmental quality issues will find this well presented and extensively referenced publication of great value - Esrisat; ...very up-to-date...I can warmly recommend this book both as a reference work for the library, but also for the individual bookshelf of those with a serious interest in the subject. - Analytica Chimica Acta
