Environmental Chemistry
Dr. A. Amsavel
ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRY
Study of the chemical and biochemical
phenomena that occur in the environment.
To study the undesirable changes in our
surroundings that have harmful effects on the
plants, animals and human beings
To study the source, reaction, transport, effects,
and chemical molecule present in the Air, Soil &
water.
ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRY
Broad area to study the following:
Contamination of Air, Water & Soil
Environmental Indicators- Pollution parameters
Method of monitoring / testing
Mitigation or Control
Elimination, Recycle , Reduction & Efficient treatment
Green Chemistry- Prevention
Why this topic
Earth was formed about 4.5 billion years ago
Life on Earth arose at least 3.5 billion years ago
Human Civilisation started 10000 years before until
environment change s due to nature
Last 200 year environment changes drastically due to human
Environment impact by nature is around 1/3 and 2/3 due to
human
We are responsible for degradation of environment, everyone
contribute directly or indirectly
We should aware the damage we do and how to reduce or
prevent the damage.
It is to be done to the next generation to live as we live and our
ancestors lived.
ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION
Addition of undesirable materials into the atmosphere by natural
phenomena or by human activity.
Air pollution changes the quality of the air and affects flora & fauna.
Air pollutants are Gases and Particulatse
Gasses are oxides of sulphur & nitrogen, hydrocarbons, ozone and
other oxidants etc
Source for Pollution;
Natural (1/3), Vehicles, Domestic, Industries ,
• Volcano, erosion, photo dissociation/ photoionisation
• Burning of fossil fuel, Waste incineration
• Emission from industries, etc
Particulate pollutants are dust, mist, fumes, smoke, smog
Minute solid particles or liquid droplets in air.
Sources are from vehicle emissions, smoke particles from
fires, dust particles and ash from industries.
Particles are viable and non-viable
Viable particulates e.g., bacteria, fungi, moulds, algae etc.,
living organisms that are dispersed in the atmosphere which
will cause diseases.
Non-viable particulates: combustion of organic matter
ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION
ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION
Dust: is fine solid particles produced during crushing,
grinding and attribution of solid materials. Cement and fly ash
from factories etc.
Mists: are produced by particles of spray liquids and by
condensation of vapours in air.
Fumes/ vapours: are generated by various operation like
chemical reactions, condensation, sublimation, distillation,
boiling etc...
Air borne particles are dangerous for human health
ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION
SMOG (smoke and fog): common air pollution from major cities
Classical smog or reducing smog: it occurs in cool humid
climate. It is the mixture of smoke, fog and sulphur dioxide.
Photochemical smog: occurs in warm, dry and sunny climate.
Reaction components due chain reaction by sunlight on
unsaturated hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides and free oxygen
atom
It has high concentration of oxidizing agents and is, therefore,
called as oxidizing smog.
• NO2+ O2 + hν → NO + O3
• O3 + hν → O + O2
• O + H2O → 2 OH [OH] ~ 106
molecules/cc
• OH radical is dominant oxidizer in troposphere!
Water Pollution
Pollution of water is due to human activities.
Major contamination is from domestic (municipal) discharged
water and industries.
Organic matter such as leaves, grass, trash etc. Excessive
phytoplankton's growth within water.
Bacteria decomposes the above organic matter and consume
oxygen dissolved in water.
Pathogens: Disease causing microorganisms called pathogens
and harmful bacteria
Micro organism enter water from domestic sewage and animal
excreta.
Water Pollution
Domestic waste: soaps, detergent, refectories etc
Industries are major source for water pollution,
Hazardous, toxic organic chemicals
Heavy metals such as cadmium, mercury, nickel etc. All these
metals are dangerous to human body.
Pathogens: Disease causing microorganisms called pathogens
and harmful bacteria
Micro organism enter water from domestic sewage and animal
excreta.
Soil pollution
Soil pollution/contamination is caused by chemicals from Waste
dumping, Pesticides and Insecticides, Urbanization & Mining
etc.
Waste dumping :
Industrial solid wastes and sludge
Industrial emissions such as fly ash from thermal power plants
Radioactive materials affects the soil for long periods of time,
Mining :
Mining also affects ground and surface waters, the aquatic life,
vegetation, soils, animals, and the human health.
Acid mine drainage can kill aquatic life.
Toxic metals and chemicals released by mine
Soil pollution
Pesticides :
Many of the chemicals used in pesticides are persistent soil
contaminants, which adversely affect soil conservation.
The use of pesticides decreases the biodiversity in the soil. reduced
nitrogen fixation
Animals may be poisoned by pesticide residues that remain on food
after spraying
Poisoning from pesticides can affects the food chain and bio-
acculmulates
Waste Management
Waste management is the collection, transport, processing or
disposal, managing and monitoring of waste materials.
It is to reduce their effect on health, the environment or
aesthetics.
All waste materials like solid, liquid, gaseous or radioactive
substances, and tried to reduce the harmful environmental
impacts of each through different methods.
Control of population growth.
Reduce burning of fossil fuels & forests.!
It is by Avoidance & Reduction methods
AVOIDANCE & REDUCTION METHODS:
3Rs: Removal, Reduction & Reuse/Recycle:
An important method of waste management is the prevention of
waste material being created.
Efficient method to reduce the waste.
Reuse or Recycle:
Repairing broken items instead of buying new –
Designing products to be refillable or reusable
Avoid using disposable products
Bio-decomposable eg Jute or cotton bags
Removing any food/liquid remains from cans
Green chemistry
1. Rather than worry about waste disposal, it is better to avoid
creating waste.
2. Try to generate as little waste as possible, and try to make
waste that is nontoxic (convert toxic into non-toxic).
3. Be energy conscious in designing syntheses
4. Catalysts that allow the use of safe chemicals should be
employed when possible.
5. Try to use renewable feed stocks as raw materials.
6. Try to reduce the amount of solvent used, and try to use
environmentally friendly solvents.
Green chemistry
Green chemistry also called sustainable chemistry:
Design or develop the products and processes that minimize
the use and generation of hazardous substances.
While environmental chemistry Green chemistry is the
chemistry of the natural environment, and of pollutant chemicals
in nature, green chemistry seeks to reduce and prevent
pollution at its source.
The focus is on minimizing the hazard and maximizing the
efficiency of any chemical choice.
Use of supercritical carbon dioxide as green solvent
Aqueous hydrogen peroxide for clean oxidations –
Use of hydrogen in asymmetric synthesis
Solvents
Solvents such as supercritical water and CO2 are
great “green” alternatives.
Environmental Awareness
As scientists, we are morally obliged to consider the
consequences of our acts.
We create a molecule for profit but must consider its
harm when discarded.
plastic bottles now biodegrade and are no longer immortal.
non-chlorinated refrigerants now cool beer without
sacrificing the Ozone Layer.
Engine exhaust components
Rich mix minimizes NO, maximizes CO, hc
• Run a little rich and catalytically kill CO to CO2

Environmental chemistry

  • 2. ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRY Study of the chemical and biochemical phenomena that occur in the environment. To study the undesirable changes in our surroundings that have harmful effects on the plants, animals and human beings To study the source, reaction, transport, effects, and chemical molecule present in the Air, Soil & water.
  • 3. ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRY Broad area to study the following: Contamination of Air, Water & Soil Environmental Indicators- Pollution parameters Method of monitoring / testing Mitigation or Control Elimination, Recycle , Reduction & Efficient treatment Green Chemistry- Prevention
  • 4. Why this topic Earth was formed about 4.5 billion years ago Life on Earth arose at least 3.5 billion years ago Human Civilisation started 10000 years before until environment change s due to nature Last 200 year environment changes drastically due to human Environment impact by nature is around 1/3 and 2/3 due to human We are responsible for degradation of environment, everyone contribute directly or indirectly We should aware the damage we do and how to reduce or prevent the damage. It is to be done to the next generation to live as we live and our ancestors lived.
  • 5. ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION Addition of undesirable materials into the atmosphere by natural phenomena or by human activity. Air pollution changes the quality of the air and affects flora & fauna. Air pollutants are Gases and Particulatse Gasses are oxides of sulphur & nitrogen, hydrocarbons, ozone and other oxidants etc Source for Pollution; Natural (1/3), Vehicles, Domestic, Industries , • Volcano, erosion, photo dissociation/ photoionisation • Burning of fossil fuel, Waste incineration • Emission from industries, etc
  • 6. Particulate pollutants are dust, mist, fumes, smoke, smog Minute solid particles or liquid droplets in air. Sources are from vehicle emissions, smoke particles from fires, dust particles and ash from industries. Particles are viable and non-viable Viable particulates e.g., bacteria, fungi, moulds, algae etc., living organisms that are dispersed in the atmosphere which will cause diseases. Non-viable particulates: combustion of organic matter ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION
  • 7. ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION Dust: is fine solid particles produced during crushing, grinding and attribution of solid materials. Cement and fly ash from factories etc. Mists: are produced by particles of spray liquids and by condensation of vapours in air. Fumes/ vapours: are generated by various operation like chemical reactions, condensation, sublimation, distillation, boiling etc... Air borne particles are dangerous for human health
  • 8. ATMOSPHRIC POLLUTION SMOG (smoke and fog): common air pollution from major cities Classical smog or reducing smog: it occurs in cool humid climate. It is the mixture of smoke, fog and sulphur dioxide. Photochemical smog: occurs in warm, dry and sunny climate. Reaction components due chain reaction by sunlight on unsaturated hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides and free oxygen atom It has high concentration of oxidizing agents and is, therefore, called as oxidizing smog. • NO2+ O2 + hν → NO + O3 • O3 + hν → O + O2 • O + H2O → 2 OH [OH] ~ 106 molecules/cc • OH radical is dominant oxidizer in troposphere!
  • 9. Water Pollution Pollution of water is due to human activities. Major contamination is from domestic (municipal) discharged water and industries. Organic matter such as leaves, grass, trash etc. Excessive phytoplankton's growth within water. Bacteria decomposes the above organic matter and consume oxygen dissolved in water. Pathogens: Disease causing microorganisms called pathogens and harmful bacteria Micro organism enter water from domestic sewage and animal excreta.
  • 10. Water Pollution Domestic waste: soaps, detergent, refectories etc Industries are major source for water pollution, Hazardous, toxic organic chemicals Heavy metals such as cadmium, mercury, nickel etc. All these metals are dangerous to human body. Pathogens: Disease causing microorganisms called pathogens and harmful bacteria Micro organism enter water from domestic sewage and animal excreta.
  • 11. Soil pollution Soil pollution/contamination is caused by chemicals from Waste dumping, Pesticides and Insecticides, Urbanization & Mining etc. Waste dumping : Industrial solid wastes and sludge Industrial emissions such as fly ash from thermal power plants Radioactive materials affects the soil for long periods of time, Mining : Mining also affects ground and surface waters, the aquatic life, vegetation, soils, animals, and the human health. Acid mine drainage can kill aquatic life. Toxic metals and chemicals released by mine
  • 12. Soil pollution Pesticides : Many of the chemicals used in pesticides are persistent soil contaminants, which adversely affect soil conservation. The use of pesticides decreases the biodiversity in the soil. reduced nitrogen fixation Animals may be poisoned by pesticide residues that remain on food after spraying Poisoning from pesticides can affects the food chain and bio- acculmulates
  • 13. Waste Management Waste management is the collection, transport, processing or disposal, managing and monitoring of waste materials. It is to reduce their effect on health, the environment or aesthetics. All waste materials like solid, liquid, gaseous or radioactive substances, and tried to reduce the harmful environmental impacts of each through different methods. Control of population growth. Reduce burning of fossil fuels & forests.! It is by Avoidance & Reduction methods
  • 14. AVOIDANCE & REDUCTION METHODS: 3Rs: Removal, Reduction & Reuse/Recycle: An important method of waste management is the prevention of waste material being created. Efficient method to reduce the waste. Reuse or Recycle: Repairing broken items instead of buying new – Designing products to be refillable or reusable Avoid using disposable products Bio-decomposable eg Jute or cotton bags Removing any food/liquid remains from cans
  • 15. Green chemistry 1. Rather than worry about waste disposal, it is better to avoid creating waste. 2. Try to generate as little waste as possible, and try to make waste that is nontoxic (convert toxic into non-toxic). 3. Be energy conscious in designing syntheses 4. Catalysts that allow the use of safe chemicals should be employed when possible. 5. Try to use renewable feed stocks as raw materials. 6. Try to reduce the amount of solvent used, and try to use environmentally friendly solvents.
  • 16. Green chemistry Green chemistry also called sustainable chemistry: Design or develop the products and processes that minimize the use and generation of hazardous substances. While environmental chemistry Green chemistry is the chemistry of the natural environment, and of pollutant chemicals in nature, green chemistry seeks to reduce and prevent pollution at its source. The focus is on minimizing the hazard and maximizing the efficiency of any chemical choice. Use of supercritical carbon dioxide as green solvent Aqueous hydrogen peroxide for clean oxidations – Use of hydrogen in asymmetric synthesis
  • 17. Solvents Solvents such as supercritical water and CO2 are great “green” alternatives.
  • 18. Environmental Awareness As scientists, we are morally obliged to consider the consequences of our acts. We create a molecule for profit but must consider its harm when discarded. plastic bottles now biodegrade and are no longer immortal. non-chlorinated refrigerants now cool beer without sacrificing the Ozone Layer. Engine exhaust components Rich mix minimizes NO, maximizes CO, hc • Run a little rich and catalytically kill CO to CO2
