The Availability of Limestone and Other Raw Materials for Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
Abstract The work assesses the availability and localizations of different raw materials suitable for ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE), like limestone, olivine, magnesite and brucite, since several billion tons of rocky materials are needed to achieve meaningful results for carbon sequestration through OAE.

Facts about Serpentine Rock and Soil Containing Asbestos in California [PDF]

, 2009
Author(s): Frazell, Julie; Elkins, Rachel; O'Geen, Anthony Toby; Reynolds, Robert; Meyers, James | Abstract: Serpentine and related rocks sometimes contain naturally occurring asbestos (NOA). When these rocks break down into soil, the NOA comes with them, and that creates a health hazard. Learn to recognize serpentine soils and keep health risks

Fungal diversity is not determined by mineral and chemical differences in serpentine substrates.

PLoS ONE, 2012
The physico-chemical properties of serpentine soils lead to strong selection of plant species. Whereas many studies have described the serpentine flora, little information is available on the fungal communities dwelling in these sites. Asbestos minerals,

Comparative Studies on the Cytotoxicity of Amphibole and Serpentine Asbestos

Environmental Health Perspectives, 1980
The chemical and physical properties of serpentine and amphibole asbestos are considered in the context of their interaction with tissue of the tracheobronchial tree and lungs. In vitro studies in cultures of several types are evaluated and work with the erythrocyte hemolysis system is reviewed.

Chrysotile asbestos treated with phosphoric acid as an adsorbent for ammonia nitrogen

Heliyon, 2020
The purpose of this study was to find an alternative application for chrysotile asbestos, given that there is a complete structure of extraction and production of this class of serpentine minerals, but its use is banned for many applications.

FOREST PHYTOCOENOSES FORMATION ON SERPENTINE DUMPS OF ASBESTOS DEPOSIT, MIDDLE URALS, RUSSIA

, 2022
The mineral deposits’ development is accompanied by significant disturbances of soil and vegetation in large areas. The study of initial stages of disturbed lands natural overgrowing makes it possible to assess patterns of vegetation formation. Forest phytocoenoses formation on serpentine substrates in the Middle Urals, Russia (taiga zone, subzone of ...
