Textbook Carbon Dioxide
Carbon
dioxide
has
great
importance
as
a
greenhouse
gas
in
the
atmosphere
and
as
a
carbonic
acid
system
in
water.
Since
the
CO
2
in
the
two
spheres
of
air
and
water
is
connected by gas exchange, these spheres cannot be considered separately.
The
basics
of
the
systems
are
covered,
the
role
as
a
greenhouse
gas,
the
carbon
cycles,
and
the
solution
in
water.
The
carbonic
acid
system
in
water
and
the
importance
of
lime
are
presented
in
detail.
The
occurrence
in
the
natural
water
cycle
as
well
as
in
raw
waters
for
drinking
water
treatment
and
the
corresponding
treatment
processes for drinking water are also described.
Sample
calculations
for
the
aqueous
phase
supplement
the
theoretical
considerations.
The
required
constants
are
attached
in
tables.
Chemical
fundamentals are presented in brief in conclusion.

offset
For every book sold, a CO
2
offset is created
by supporting projects to reduce CO
2
emissions
as well as through tree planting and forest protection
