With praise and gratitude to Allah SWT, for His abundant grace and guidance, the writing of this book entitled “Environmental Chemistry” has been completed. This book discusses an introduction to environmental chemistry, the main components of the environment, soil and soil pollution, technology for management, and perspectives on environmental ethics and policy

Environmental chemistry is a branch of chemistry that studies the reactions and transformations of chemical substances in the environment, as well as the interactions between chemical components and natural elements such as air, water, soil, and living organisms. The primary goal of environmental chemistry is to understand how chemical compounds are formed, distributed, react, and ultimately affect the balance of ecosystems. In other words, environmental chemistry serves as a bridge between pure chemistry and its application in the context of the natural environment and humans as part of that system (X. Liu et al., 2020).
