J. Alguacil and A. Guerrero. This study presents data of mercury emission rates from contaminated soils of the main mercury district worldwide, namely Almadén. Meteorological parameters and soil condition were the factors taken in consideration in relation with emission rates obtained with a dynamic flux chamber (DFC). Mercury emission from Almadén contaminated soils are in a similar range (27 – 671 ng·m-2·h-1) with respect to other mercury contaminated soils by mining or industrial activities. Solar radiation and soil temperature are the meteorological parameters with higher correlation factors with mercury emission rates. Soil cover is also important in prevention soil degassing and mercury emission. This study has been founded by European LIFE-Environment programme though the project MERSADE (LIFE06ENV/ES/PREP/03), as well as by Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation, trough the Project MERCAIR (CTM2006-13091-C02-01/) and by Castilla-La Mancha regional “Consejería de Educación” Projects CTM2006-13091-C02 and PII1I09-0142-4389. |
