Review
"Going through this book could enhance one's understanding of the processes and mechanisms controlling the eventual fate of metal contaminants in the soil environment. This can be particularly helpful in assessing the efficacy of a particular soil remendation technique in agricultural and industrial-type setting." -D.C. Adriano, Savannah River Ecology Laboratory, University of Georgia" this book presents some very good information. interesting and worth reading. a good reference for writing papers and grant proposals. worth adding to your collection. - Vadose Zone Journal, Vol. 1, November 2002 Promo Copy
Product Description
A timely addition to the literature, this book highlights the desorption/release mechanisms for the purpose of resolving remediation dilemmas. It gives readers the added advantage of case studies at both the microscopic and macroscopic scales and provides both experimental and numerical investigations. With contributions from an international panel of authors, Heavy Metals Release in Soils fills a gap in the knowledge currently found in publications concerned with subsurface contaminant fate and transport processes. Appropriate for graduate level students and scientists in environmental engineering, it will also appeal to managers and regulators.
