Distribution and Occurrence of Mercury in Coal of China and Its Effect on Environment Mercury is one of the factors harmful to the environment. As mercury has quite strong volatility, it will be easily emitted into the atmosphere when the co... Z Qiang - International Conference on Biomedical ...
CoalMercuryChemical speciationSulfideMercury and its compounds which formed in the coal combustion process have a serious effect on the environment. Four coal samples in Chongqing were selected to study on the occurrence form of mercury, as well as the effect of sulfur, chlorine on mercury ...
Mercury, as a global pollutant, has raised worldwide concern due to its high toxicity, long-distance transport, persistence, and bioaccumulation in the environment. Coal-fired power plants (CFPPs) are considered as the major anthropogenic mercury emission source to the atmosphere, especially for Chi...
of mercury pollution in three environmental media(atmosphere,soil and water),and combined with the status of excessive mercury in different media and its effect on health of population in contaminated areas,this paper reviews the present situation of mercury pollution and its health hazards in China...
With the co-combustion of alternative fuels, the shares of fossil fuels (such as coal, petrol coke, and natural gas) as the main energy source have been reduced drastically. Salonit has also achieved, compared with other cement plants in Europe, one of the lowest CO2 emissions per unit of...

Coal preparation is a possible method to reject mercury from coal prior to coal combustion. To evaluate this approach, two coal samples were collected from the Laoshidan coal preparation plant in Neimenggu Province and the Tangshan coal preparation plant in Hebei Province, China for this study. ...
However, there was no definite connection between the lifesaving effect of an antidote and its effect on distribution or excretion of mercury. An increase in excretion of mercury was not a precondition for lifesaving effect. On the other hand, each chelating agent not only has its own toxicity...
