Abstract

Abstract The elemental solubilities of three coal fly ash samples and two coastal marine-aerosol samples in seawater are different. The coal fly ash samples were collected from the electrostatic precipitators on coal-fired power plants. The air particulates were collected by a high-volume air sampler located near the Washington coast. Samples were neutron-activated then contacted with seawater for several hours. The elements that were partially solubilized from both fly ash and aerosols included As, Sb, Se, Br and Cr. Zinc and Co were more soluble in aerosols then fly ash.
