9th International Conference on the Biogeochemistry of Trace Elements (ICOBTE)
We are pleased to invite you to participate in the 9th ICOBTE, which will take place for the first time in Beijing, China. This highly successful conference series began in Orlando (1990) and has been held in Taipei (1993), Paris (1995), Berkeley (1997), Vienna (1999), Guelph (2001), Uppsala (2003) and Adelaide (2005).

The 9th ICOBTE is dedicated to the
exchange of recent advancements in the biogeochemistry of trace
elements. Biogeochemistry has developed into an interdisciplinary
science, linking phenomena observed in the biosphere to physical and
chemical reactions in the pedo-, hydro- and lithosphere. The conference
provides a forum for professionals, regulators, and students to present
their most recent findings and to discuss with colleagues from around
the world state-of-the-art methodologies, analytical techniques, and
process development.
Main theme of the conference
- Speciation, bioavailability and advanced analytical methods
- Deficiency of trace elements in food systems and human health
- Heavy metal contamination and ecosystem/human health
- Regulatory and policy dimension of metal contamination
- Advances in remediation technologies for metal contaminated sites
- Eco-toxicology of metals and risk-based management of metal contaminated environments
