Heavy Metals: Problems and Solutions
Alina Kabata-Pendias (auth.), Prof. Dr. Ulrich Förstner, Prof. Dr. Wim Salomons, Dr. Pavel Mader (eds.)"Heavy Metals: Problems and Solutions" is divided into three sections dealing with basic geochemical processes, remediation and case studies. The basic geochemical processes are discussed with respect to mobility in the environment and impact as well as methods to derive guidelines for heavy metals. Remediation focuses on currently available methods to treat contaminated sediments and soils. In addition, it considers the concept of geochemical engineering for remediation of large areas contaminated by metals. A number of case studies of polluted sediments and soils and their environmental impact highlight the principles discussed in the first two sections.
