Summary

The research papers in this book were presented as part of the Fourth International Conference on the Biogeochemistry of Trace Elements. The purpose of the conference was to present current knowledge of the sources, pathways, behavior and effects of trace elements in soils, waters, plants and animals. Biogeochemistry of Trace Elements in Coal and Coal Combustion Byproducts is for a variety of readers, including public health and environmental professionals, industrial hygienists, consultants, waste management professionals, and academicians. It may also prove valuable to scientists conducting research on coal and coal combustion byproducts.
