SM & T activities in support of standardisation of operationally-defined extraction procedures for soil and sediment analysis -- Sequential extraction procedures for sediment analysis -- Extraction procedures for soil analysis -- Sequential extraction procedures for the characterisation of the fractionation of elements in industrially-contaminated soils -- Sequential extraction procedure for phosphorus form in lake sediment -- Leaching procedure for the availability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in contaminated soils and waste materials -- Harmonisation of leaching L extraction procedures for sludge, compost, soil and sediment analyses |
| Summary |
The analysis of soils and sediments for pollutants is increasingly required in today's industrial world. It is therefore important that extraction procedures used for environmental risk assessment studies, production of certified reference materials and applications of extraction schemes are standardised throughout the scientific community. This book deals specifically with operationally-defined extraction methods for the determination of ""fractions"" of elements in soil and sediment matrices. Bringing together the work of a number of different international laboratories, the book describes si |
