Creator:

Lim, Hyungsik

Abstract:

Application of sewage sludge to soils increases the trace metal content and the organic content of soils. The complexation of indigenous and added metals with organic constituents must be studied to evaluate metal availability to plants and animals. The water soluble organic fractions (WSOF) from an agricultural soil (W), a...
