Surfactants and Colloids in the Environment presents the proceedings of the General Meeting of
the German Colloid Society (Kolloid-Gesellschaft) held at the Research Center of Jülich (KFA)
FRG in 1993. The volume emphasizes the importance of colloid chemistry in environmental
research. Contributions on the physico-chemical behavior of colloids and surfaces in
environmental technology demonstrate the high standard and usefulness of colloid science in
this field: General colloid and environmental science complement each other. Thus the detailed
contributions in this volume will be useful toward solving some environmental problems.
