Precipitation-dissolution cycles

Complete dissolution of the polymer was obtained by irradiation of the suspension for a few seconds at 350 nm irradiation at 450 nm or dark adaptation of the solution caused the polymer to precipitate. In a HFP/water = 85/15 solvent mixture, therefore, the precipitation-dissolution cycles can be reversibly... [Pg.355]

The polymer stayed in solution because only a few hydroxy functions were deprotonated and immediately dendrimerized by die dendrons simultaneously present. Tbis procedure was repeated until all hydroxy functions were thought to be covered. After the reaction was finished, excess dendrons were removed by repeated precipitation/dissolution cycles, which turned out to be quite a tedious procedure, specifically for the second generation dendrons. [Pg.150]

Mercury provides an excellent example of the importance of metal speciation in understanding biogeochemical cycling and the impact of human activities on these cycles. Mercury exists in solid, aqueous, and gaseous phases, and is transported among reservoirs in all these forms. It undergoes precipitation-dissolution, volatilization, complexation, sorption, and biological reactions, all of which alter its mobility and its effect on exposed populations. The effect of all... [Pg.410]

It is now realized that copper as metal next to iron and chromium participates in photoredox cycles and its role cannot be ignored. The most important part of the cycle is photoreduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I) induced by solar light and oxidation of ligands to their environmentally benign forms. Then Cu(I) is easily re-oxidized to Cu(II), which can coordinate the next ligand molecule, and thereby the Cu photocatalytic cycles contribute to continuous environmental cleaning. Besides oxida-tion/reduction, other critical processes relevant to the copper cycles are adsorption/desorption and precipitation/dissolution... [Pg.331]

Yebra et al. [83] used a continuous-flow procedure for the indirect determination of sodium cyclamate by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). This method is based on oxidation of the sulfamic group derived from cyclamate to sulfate in acidic conditions and in the presence of sodium nitrite. The procedure is adapted to a flow system with precipitate dissolution (Figure 24.11), where sulfate formed is continuously precipitated with lead ion. The lead sulfate formed is retained on a filter, washed with diluted ethanol, and dissolved in ammonium acetate (because of the formation of soluble lead acetate) for online FAAS determination of lead, the amount of which in the precipitate is proportional to that of cyclamate in the sample. In this work a home-made filtration device was used made of a Teflon tubing packed with a cotton pulp and the ends of the filter column were plugged with filter paper (chamber inner volume 141 J,L). This precipitate collector was effective in retaining the precipitate and did not produce excessive back-pressure if the precipitate was dissolved following each precipitation cycle. [Pg.477]

Two of the study systems, Lake Michigan and Pond 3513, exhibit cyclic behavior in their concentrations of Pu(V) (Figure 2 and 3). The cycle in Lake Michigan seems to be closely coupled with the formation in the summer and dissolution in the winter of calcium carbonate and silica particles, which are related to primary production cycles in the lake(25). The experimental knowledge that both Pu(IV) and Pu(V) adsorb on calcium carbonate precipitates(20) confirms the importance of carbonate formation in the reduction of plutonium concentrations in late summer. Whether oxidation-reduction is important in this process has not been determined. [Pg.304]

Up to this point, we have focused on aqueous equilibria involving proton transfer. Now we apply the same principles to the equilibrium that exists between a solid salt and its dissolved ions in a saturated solution. We can use the equilibrium constant for the dissolution of a substance to predict the solubility of a salt and to control precipitate formation. These methods are used in the laboratory to separate and analyze mixtures of salts. They also have important practical applications in municipal wastewater treatment, the extraction of minerals from seawater, the formation and loss of bones and teeth, and the global carbon cycle. [Pg.586]

ABSTRACT The locations, magnitudes, variations and mechanisms responsible for the atmospheric C02 sink are uncertain and under debate. Previous studies concentrated mainly on oceans, and soil and terrestrial vegetation as sinks. Here, we show that there is an important C02 sink in carbonate dissolution, the global water cycle and photosynthetic uptake of DIC by aquatic ecosystems. The sink constitutes up to 0.82 Pg C/a 0.24 Pg C/a is delivered to oceans via rivers and 0.22 Pg C/a by meteoric precipitation, 0.12 Pg C/a is returned to the atmosphere, and 0.23 Pg C/a is stored in the continental aquatic ecosystem. The net sink could be as much as 0.70 Pg C/a, may increase with intensification of the global water cycle, increase in C02 and carbonate dust in atmosphere, reforestation/afforestation, and with fertilization of aquatic ecosystems. Under the projection of global warming for the year 2100, it is estimated that this C02 sink may increase by 22%, or about 0.18 Pg c/a. [Pg.477]

Fe(III)(hydr)oxides introduced into the lake and formed within the lake - Strong affinity (surface complex formation) for heavy metals, phosphates, silicates and oxyanions of As, Se Fe(III) oxides even if present in small proportions can exert significant removal of trace elements. - At the oxic-anoxic boundary of a lake (see Chapter 9.6) Fe(III) oxides may represent a large part of settling particles. Internal cycling of Fe by reductive dissolution and by oxidation-precipitation is coupled to the cycling of metal ions as discussed in Chapter 9. [Pg.384]

The cycles of reduction and oxidation of Fe and Mn oxides in intermittently submerged soils provide opportunities for co-precipitation with trace metals. In most natural systems it is the rate of dissolution of the sohd phase that limits solid solntion formation rather than thermodynamics, so conditions in snbmerged soils are highly conducive to formation of solid solntions. [Pg.84]
