The applications of Beer s law for the quantitative analysis of samples in environmental chemistry, clinical chemistry, industrial chemistry and forensic chemistry are numerous. Examples from each of these fields follow. 

The widespread use of biphenyl and methyl-substituted biphenyls as dye carriers (qv) in the textile industry has given rise to significant environmental concern because of the amount released to the environment in wastewater effluent. Although biphenyl and simple alkylbiphenyls are themselves biodegradable (48—50), the prospect of their conversion by chlorination to PCBs in the course of wastewater treatment has been a subject of environmental focus (51—53). Despite the fact that the lower chlorinated biphenyls are also fairly biodegradable (49,54,55) continued environmental concern has resulted in decreased use of biphenyl as a dye carrier (see Dyes, environmental chemistry). 

Ronald E. Hester is Professor of Chemistry in the University of York. He was for short periods a research fellow in Cambridge and an assistant professor at Cornell before being appointed to a lectureship in chemistry in York in 1965. He has been a full professor in York since 1983. His more than 300 publications are mainly in the area of vibrational spectroscopy, latterly focusing on time-resolved studies of photoreaction intermediates and on biomolecular systems in solution. He is active in environmental chemistry and is a founder member and former chairman of the Environment Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry and editor of Industry and the Environment in Perspective (RSC, 1983) and Understanding Our Environment (RSC, 1986). As a member of the Council of the UK Science and Engineering Research Council and several of its sub-committees, panels and boards, he has been heavily involved in national science policy and administration. He was, from 1991-93, a member of the UK Department of the Environment Advisory Committee on Hazardous Substances and is currently a member of the Publications and Information Board of the Royal Society of Chemistry.

Clay minerals or phyllosilicates are lamellar natural and synthetic materials with high surface area, cation exchange and swelling properties, exfoliation ability, variable surface charge density and hydrophobic/hydrophilic character [85], They are good host structures for intercalation or adsorption of organic molecules and macromolecules, particularly proteins. On the basis of the natural adsorption of proteins by clay minerals and various clay complexes that occurs in soils, many authors have investigated the use of clay and clay-derived materials as matrices for the immobilization of enzymes, either for environmental chemistry purpose or in the chemical and material industries.

This Accelrys provided database is based on the journals of the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) (308). It primarily contains information on the metabolic fate of chemicals (including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, food additives, and environmental and industrial chemicals) in vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants. New entries can be added, and the database may be searched graphically. This database can be combined with various computational tools from Accelrys for target-specific analysis and modeling. Metabolic pathways are organized alphanumerically, and future releases are scheduled to include a comprehensive survey of the metabolism literature (308,309). 

Having a balanced chemical equation and knowing the relationship between mass and moles allows us to predict how much reactant is necessary to yield a certain amount of product. This knowledge has important applications in industrial chemistry, environmental chemistry, nutrition, and in any situation where reactions take place. The balanced equation is a recipe for a chemical reaction. Just as it is necessary to know the amount of eggs, flour, sugar, and salt to bake a cake, we need to know the amount of ingredients that go into a chemical reaction. The balanced chemical equation gives the quantities of different reactants that are required to produce a specific amount of product.
