Abstract

Techniques of microcalorimetry have been proved a powerful tool to elucidate thermodynamic information on various reactions and processes during the past two decades. In addition to their application in fundamental research, the studies on the environmental sciences have been established in some areas. This review mainly focuses on the use of microcalorimetry in the determination of microbial activity in soil and the wastewater treatment processes. Promising prospects for the applications of microcalorimetry in environmental sciences are also discussed.
