in aquatic environments: in water, beryllium is almost exclusively absorbed by ultrafine mineral particles. However, in acidic environments, it can pass into solution, reducing the self-purification capacity of water at concentrations of 0.01 mg/L and above. This phenomenon results in high levels of toxicity for fish and micro-organisms;
in the atmosphere: beryllium migrates into the atmosphere through...
