Natural arsenic in groundwater and alkaline lakes at the upper Paraguay basin, Pantanal, Brazil; Abstract; 4.1 Introduction; 4.2 Regional setting; 4.3 Materials and methods4.3.1 FieldworkThis volume presents the recent developments in the field of arsenic in soil and groundwater. Arranged into nine sections, the text emphasizes the global occurrences of arsenic in the environment, particularly on its source, pathways, behavior, and effects it has on soils, plants, water, animals, and humans. It also covers the diverse issues of arsenic in the mining environment, arsenic emanating from hydrothermal springs, and the geochemical modeling of arsenic adsorption to oxide surfaces. Finally, the text includes different cost effective removal mechanisms of arsenic from drinking waterTrace metals in the environment ;9.ArsenicEnvironmental aspectsCongressesArsenic compoundsCongressesSoil pollutionCongressesWaterPollutionCongressesElectronic books.ArsenicEnvironmental aspectsArsenic compoundsSoil pollutionWaterPollution363.7384Bhattacharya Prosun315440International Conference on the Biogeochemistry of Trace Elements(7th :2003 :Uppsala, Sweden)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457293403321Arsenic in soil and groundwater environment2484797UNINA
