milli something per kilogram, sory dont know what val is.  whats the unit from, that might give a clue to its meaning. I think val = value, i.e. milli values per kilogram or milli units per kilogram.
The only stupid question is a question not asked.

AFAIK a Val is a unit used in Germany for equivalent weight.  So mVal/kg is a measure of concentration of "equivalents" sort of like Normal (N) is used for acids (I guess) but in grams per kilogram.

(hope that helps)

mval/kg = meq/Kg

Normally I saw it this concentration unit in: Water Treatment /Water Analysis and Biological Fluids mainly in Medicine...

As wrote allan, is a word used in Germany...
