Title: Behavior of toxic metals during contact of synthetic coal leachates with Maryland Coastal plain soil

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:575129

In this work, the authors studied the behavior of the biologically active metals (Al, Cu, Cr, and Be) during the percolation of very acid coal leachates through soil from Maryland`s Eastern Shore. In batch experiments, this soil was exposed to a standard, synthetic leachate, the composition of which mimics natural acid coal leachate.
