The A D V A N C E S IN C H E M I S T R Y SERIES was

founded in 1949

by

the American Chemical Society as an outlet for symposia and collections of data in special areas of topical interest that could not be accommodated in the Society's journals. It provides a medium for symposia that w o u l d otherwise be fragmented because their papers w o u l d be distributed among several journals or not published at all. Papers are reviewed critically according to A C S editorial standards and receive the careful attention and processing characteristic of A C S publications. Volumes in the A D V A N C E S IN CHEMISTRY SERIES maintain the

integrity of the symposia on which they are based; however, verbatim reproductions of previously published papers are not accepted. Papers may include reports of research as well as reviews, because symposia may embrace both types of presentation.

ABOUT T H E EDITORS I. H . (MEL) SUFFET is P. W. Purdom Professor of Environmental Chemistry at Drexel U n i ­ versity. H e received his Ph.D. from Rutgers University, his M . S . in chemistry from the University of Maryland, and his B.S. in chem­ istry from B r o o k l y n College. A m o n g his numerous awards are the American Chemical Society's Zimmerman Award in Environmen­ tal Science, D r e x e l University Research Achievement Award, Pennsylvania Water Pol­ lution Control Association Service Award, and Instrument Society of America Service Award. Suffet has coauthored more than 100 research papers and monograph chapters on environmental and analytical chemistry. His research expertise in the field of environmental chemistry focuses on phase equilibria and transfer of hazardous chemicals. This expertise allows h i m to work on the analysis, fate, and treatment of hazardous chemicals and has led to his current studies on humic materials. H e has organized and chaired numerous technical society meetings. In addition, he has served on the Safe Drinking Water Committee of the National Academy of Sciences, for which he chaired the Subcommittee on Adsorption, and was a consultant to the Water Reuse Panel of the National Academy of Sciences. Suffet coedited, with M . Malaiyandi, Advances in Chemistry Series 214, Organic Pollutants in Water: Sampling, Analysis, and Toxicity Testing; with M . J . McGuire, Advances in Chemistry Series 202, Treatment of Water by Granular Activated Carbon; and a two-volume set, Activated Carbon Adsorption of Organics from the Aqueous Phase. H e also edited a two-volume treatise, The Fate of Pollutants in the Air and Water Environments; he was a journal editor for a special issue of the Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part Α-Environmental Science and Engineering; and he served on the editorial board of the companion journal, Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part B-Pesticides,

Food Contaminants, and Agricultural Wastes. H e serves on the editorial boards of the journals Chemosphere and CHEMTECH. H e has recently completed a four-year term as treasurer of the prospering A C S Division of Environmental Chemistry.

PATRICK MACCARTHY is Professor of Chemis­ try and Geochemistry at the Colorado School of Mines. H e received his Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from the University of Cincinnati, his M . S . from Northwestern University, and M.Sc. and B.Sc. (Hons.) degrees in chemistry from University College, Galway, Ireland. MacCarthy has served on the faculty of the University of Georgia, Athens, and spent a two-year period from 1985 through 1987 on sabbatical leave at the U.S. Geological Survey in Denver. MacCarthy has been studying the chemis­ try of humic substances since his introduction to this field by his first academic mentor, Sean O'Cinneide, at University College, Galway. MacCarthy s interests span a broad range of fundamental and applied aspects of humic substances research. In particular, he is interested in the characterization of humic substances and in investigating their interactions with metal ions. As one of the founding members of the International H u m i c Substances Society, MacCarthy has served as secretary-treasurer of that organization since its establishment in 1982 and continues in that position today. H e has also served as Chairman of the Colorado Section of the American Chemical Society. MacCarthy has authored or coauthored more than 70 research papers and chapters in the areas of humic substances, soil science, environmental chemistry, and analytical chemistry. H e is coeditor of the book Humic Substances in Soil, Sediment, and Water: Geochemistry, Isofotion, and Charactenzation (Wiley-Interscience, 1985). H e is also a successful inventor, and several of his toy inventions are currently marketed worldwide.
