The potential health hazards that might arise from the presence of metals in natural waters, soils and sediments are a matter of increasing concern to the water industry, environmentalists, and the general public alike. This comprehensive reference volume draws together and systematises the vast body of information available in the global scientific literature on the determination of metals in waters, soils & sediments. Sediments in rivers have the property of adsorbing dissolved metals present in the overlying water so that the concentration in the sediment is appreciably greater than that in the water by factors between 100-60,000. The concentration of metals in sediments is a measure of its concentration in water over a period of time and is therefore a useful measure of water quality. Determination of Metals in Natural Waters, Soils & Sediments provides comprehensive information on this subject. Methods are provided in broad outline, with guidance on their applicability, their comparative advantages and disadvantages, possible interferences, sensitivity & detection limits. The book is an essential reference for analytical chemists working in industry, water utilities, government & non government organisations and regulatory agencies, environmental and analytical consultants, sedimentologists, fisheries, public health and special interest groups.
