This book encompasses many aspects of trace elements in coal and is based on a consideration of a vast array of publications. As well as direct references to trace elements in coal, relevant references from allied fields are given where necessary for explanations or comparison. Much of the information is from the past decade, in keeping with the upsurge of interest in most countries where coal is produced or used. However, pertinent earlier work, especially that of the pioneer V.M.Goldschmidt (Swaine, 1988), has not been neglected. Perhaps the main impetus for knowledge of trace elements in coal is now the evironmental aspects arising from the mining, treatment and usage of coal. This book is intended to be a concise, yet complete, reference work for the specialist and for the tiro, as well as being a handbook for coal technologists and for coal scientists.
