This volume is a tribute to Professor Otto Hutzinger, the
founding editor ofThe Handbook of Environmental
Chemistry
The Handbook of Environmental
Chemistry, in recognition of his pioneering work and
contribution to our understanding of the sources, fate, exposure
and effects of persistent organic pollutants. It consists of
fourteen chapters written by individuals who have been inspired
by his work and have followed in his footsteps by refining our
knowledge of this field and opening new research directions. In
Professor Hutzinger’s tradition of passing on valuable
information to others, the authors present recent advances in
areas such as inventories, remediation, and analytical
determinations. Levels and trends in abiotic environments, biota,
and human exposure via food, as well as the risks to the
environment and humans from polychlorinated dibenzo dioxins,
furans, and PCBs are also discussed. Other chapters deal with the
relevant topics of DDT and its metabolites along with halogenated
and phosphorus flame retardants.
