Residual aluminium in drinking water supplies in relation to peatland catchment areas in Mukah, Sarawak

This study was focused on the relationship between peatland catchment areas and A1 with the aim of providing a better understanding on how A1 occurrences in natural ecosystem had impacted treated water supply. For some major development areas in Sarawak, the only available water sources are of peat...
