The conference was subdivided into four sessions, and chapters within this text are arranged according to these categories. Papers included in the first section (Thermodynamics of Electrolytes for Pollution Control) provide the reader with insights into the practical aspects of pollution control, as well as an overall appreciation of applied electrolyte phase equilibria. Other chapters include detailed descriptions of thermodynamic models that recently have been developed to describe important industrial pollution control processes with emphasis on acid gas absorption/sour water stripping and flue gas desulfurization. 

An important system in industrial pollution control is the NH3-CO2-H2O system. This equilibria represents a good test for the ECES system because data is available on the vapor pressures of NH3 and CO2 over various compositions for a range of temperatures. Furthermore, there is a lack of data on some of the pure salts that are inherent in this system and data estimates are necessary. To complete this test, this system involves both weak and strong electrolytes.

The catalytic transformation of hydrogen sulphide into elemental sulphur (Claus catalysis) is a major step in industrial pollution control. After a partial thermal oxidation of H2S into SO2 (Eq. 2), the Claus reaction (Eq. 3) and the hydrolysis reactions of the important secondary compounds such as COS (Eq. 4) and CS2 (Eq. 5) have to be catalytieally achieved [2].
