| Abstract | With the increasing use of coal, the growing impact of potentially hazardous trace elements on the environment has become a great problem [1]. China is the world’s largest coal producer and coal consumer. The emission of toxic trace elements has caused several serious problems in several areas. The southwestern part of Guizhou Province is the area of endemic arseniasis and fluorosis related to coal combustion [2,3]. The use of locally mined, high-arsenic coals has caused an excess of 3 000 cases of arseniasis in several villages in this part [4–10]. Zheng et al reported nearly 500 cases of human selenosis in southwestern China, which were attributed to the use of selenium-rich carbonaceous shales known locally as “stone coal” [11]. Many researchers investigated the distribution and origin of hazardous trace elements in Chinese coals from different districts [3,5,12–17]. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the emission of arsenic, selenium, chromium and mercury in typical coal combustion, and the retention of toxic trace elements by several typical sorbents and additives. |
