In this way, we can estimate residence times due to these atmospheric removal pathways. Anthropogenic organic pollutants in the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes have received a considerable input of toxic organic compounds from various hazardous waste disposal sites. Other compound classes of considerable interest include chlorinated paraffins, brominated diphenyl ethers, and polychlorinated naphthalenes. Enantiomeric ratios of pollutants.
Many pollutants are chiral.
We have developed the tools for measuring enantiomeric ratios, and we will be applying these tools to the determination of environmental transport processes, to source identification, and to transport within organisms. Indiana University Department of Chemistry 800 E. Kirkwood Ave.
