520 _aEnvironmental Chemistry of the Heavy Elements provides a critical review and discussion of roles played by hydrides and alkyls of the heavier elements in the natural environment. Research into the environmental chemistry of alkylmetal and alkyllmetalloid compounds has been steadily expanding and diversifying over the past three decades. Unexpected vistas have opened up with the recent discovery that hydride derivatives of many of these same elements also form and exist under environmental conditions. This book also discusses roles that microorganisms play in the formation, distribution, and degradation of heavy element compounds, and points out future possibilities and needs in this field. Environmental Chemistry of the Heavy Elements will be of interest to environmental scientists, geochemists, toxicologists, certain biotechnology professionals, and persons interested in waste recycling
