The chemistry of humic materials has been under world wide investigation for about a 100 years. The pace of the research continues to increase. During at least the last 30 years, evidence has been accumulating in the literature that the principles of classical chemistry as they are understood for monomeric reagents can to some extent be adapted to humic polyelectrolyte mixtures. Published demonstrations of predictive chemical calculations for humic materials have resulted from this. There is a need for the predictive capability to be improved, and applied to environmental remediation and regulatory practice.
