Hydrous oxide solid-phase adsorbents

An example of a polarizable interface is that between a mereury electrode and liquid water, since the concentration of mercury ions in the aqueous phase is quite negligible. In this case, it is common to assume a a practical convention that equilibrium at the interface exists when the emf of the mercury electrode-reference electrode pair vanishes, since a Galvani potential difference between mercury and water cannot be measured. An example of a reversible interface is that between a hydrous oxide solid and liquid water. In this case, and OH ions can cross the interface freely and are potential-determining. Equilibrium at the interface is established when the net ion transport across the interface vanishes, i.e., when there is no change in the pH value of the aqueous phase. Note that the interface between a soil particle and the soil solution is in general reversible. Any charged species that is adsorbed by the particle and found in the soil solution is potential-determining. [Pg.93]

In addition to the soluble chemical species and possible solid phase species described in the previous sections no discussion on speciation can be complete without the consideration of surface species. These include the inorganic and organic ions adsorbed on the surface of particles. Natural systems such as soils, sediments and waters abound with colloids such as the hydrous oxides of iron, aluminium, manganese and silicon which have the potential to form surface complexes with the various cationic and anionic dissolved species (Evans, 1989). [Pg.106]

Many such studies of sedimentary phosphorus profiles, also incorporating pore water measurement of soluble reactive phosphate, have demonstrated that redox-controlled dissolution of iron (hydr)oxides under reducing conditions at depth releases orthophosphate to solution. This then diffuses upwards (and downwards) from the pore water maximum to be re-adsorbed or co-precipitated with oxidized Fe in near-surface oxic sections. The downwards decrease in solid phase organic phosphorus indicates increasing release of phosphorus from deposited organic matter with depth, some of which will become associated with hydrous iron and other metal oxides, added to the pool of mobile phosphorus in pore water or contribute to soluble unreactive phosphorus . The characteristic reactions involving inorganic phosphorus in the sediments of Toolik Lake, Alaska, are shown in... [Pg.146]

Many of the important chemical reactions controlling arsenic partitioning between solid and liquid phases in aquifers occur at particle-water interfaces. Several spectroscopic methods exist to monitor the electronic, vibrational, and other properties of atoms or molecules localized in the interfacial region. These methods provide information on valence, local coordination, protonation, and other properties that is difficult to obtain by other means. This chapter synthesizes recent infrared, x-ray photoelectron, and x-ray absorption spectroscopic studies of arsenic speciation in natural and synthetic solid phases. The local coordination of arsenic in sulfide minerals, in arsenate and arsenite precipitates, in secondary sulfates and carbonates, adsorbed on iron, manganese, and aluminium hydrous oxides, and adsorbed on aluminosilicate clay minerals is summarized. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the implications of these studies (conducted primarily in model systems) for arsenic speciation in aquifer sediments. [Pg.27]

In surface precipitation cations (or anions) which adsorb to the surface of a mineral may form at high surface coverage a precipitate of the cation (anion) with the constituent ions of the mineral. Fig. 6.9 shows schematically the surface precipitation of a cation M2+ to hydrous ferric oxide. This model, suggested by Farley et al. (1985), allows for a continuum between surface complex formation and bulk solution precipitation of the sorbing ion, i.e., as the cation is complexed at the surface, a new hydroxide surface is formed. In the model cations at the solid (oxide) water interface are treated as surface species, while those not in contact with the solution phase are treated as solid species forming a solid solution (see Appendix 6.2). The formation of a solid solution implies isomorphic substitution. At low sorbate cation concentrations, surface complexation is the dominant mechanism. As the sorbate concentration increases, the surface complex concentration and the mole fraction of the surface precipitate both increase until the surface sites become saturated. Surface precipitation then becomes the dominant "sorption" (= metal ion incorporation) mechanism. As bulk solution precipitation is approached, the mol fraction of the surface precipitate becomes large. [Pg.229]

Figure 8.26. Representative Fe(II)/Fe(III) redox couples at pH = 7. (phen = phen-anthroline sal = salicylate porph = porphyrin = valid for [HCO = 10 M.) Complex formation with Fe(II) and Fe(III) both on solid and solute phases has a dramatic effect on the redox potentials thus electron transfer by the Fe(II),Fe(III) system can occur at pH = 7 over the entire range of the stability of water (-0.5 to 1.1 V). (= Fe 0)2 Fe refers to Fe adsorbed inner-spherically to a surface of a hydrous ferric oxide. The range of redox potentials for heme derivatives given on the right illustrates the possibilities involved in bioinorganic systems. Figure 8.26.
