Sulfate content reduction

Sulfate reduction can take place in waterlogged soils, especially environments such as paddy fields. Soils with high sulfate content, particularly as a result of input of seawater, can over time accumulate large concentrations of sulfide through sulfate reduction. When these soils are exposed to air, they can become acidic through the production... [Pg.4525]

Potential sulfate reduction rates for three Louisiana marsh soils of varying salinities (salt, brackish, and freshwater) have been determined (DeLanne et al., 2002a). The three Louisiana marshes represent different physiochemical environments. The fresh and brackish marsh soils are composed predominantly of organic matter, whereas the salt marsh soils are higher in mineral matter. Sulfate content is higher in the salt marsh. [Pg.694]

The brackish and fresh marshes contain similar sulfate contents, although means were higher in the brackish marsh. Average potential sulfate reduction rates over three sampling periods (Angnst, December, and April) were 45.9, 40, and 33.4 mol S m year respectively, for fresh, brackish, and salt marsh (Table 18.12). Turnover times are consistently longer in the salt marsh (approximately 40 days, Fignre 18.23) than in either the fresh or the brackish marshes (3-8 days). [Pg.694]

The high sulfate content of the weak acid bleed, and the comparatively low selenite and sulfur dioxide concentrations, do not favor the reduction of selenite by the sulfur dioxide. [Pg.885]

Free sulfur is rarely present in crude oils, but it can be found in suspension or dissolved in the liquid. The crude from Goldsmith (Texas, USA.) is richest in free sulfur (1% by weight for a total sulfur content of 2.17%). It could be produced by compounds in the reservoir rock by sulfate reduction (reaction 8.2). [Pg.322]

Selective Reduction. In aqueous solution, europium(III) [22541 -18-0] reduction to europium(II) [16910-54-6] is carried out by treatment with amalgams or zinc, or by continuous electrolytic reduction. Photochemical reduction has also been proposed. When reduced to the divalent state, europium exhibits chemical properties similar to the alkaline-earth elements and can be selectively precipitated as a sulfate, for example. This process is highly selective and allows production of high purity europium fromlow europium content solutions (see Calcium compounds Strontiumand strontium compounds). [Pg.544]

Analytical and Test Methods. o-Nitrotoluene can be analyzed for purity and isomer content by infrared spectroscopy with an accuracy of about 1%. -Nitrotoluene content can be estimated by the decomposition of the isomeric toluene diazonium chlorides because the ortho and meta isomers decompose more readily than the para isomer. A colorimetric method for determining the content of the various isomers is based on the color which forms when the mononitrotoluenes are dissolved in sulfuric acid (45). From the absorption of the sulfuric acid solution at 436 and 305 nm, the ortho and para isomer content can be deterrnined, and the meta isomer can be obtained by difference. However, this and other colorimetric methods are subject to possible interferences from other aromatic nitro compounds. A titrimetric method, based on the reduction of the nitro group with titanium(III) sulfate or chloride, can be used to determine mononitrotoluenes (32). Chromatographic methods, eg, gas chromatography or high pressure Hquid chromatography, are well suited for the deterrnination of mononitrotoluenes as well as its individual isomers. Freezing points are used commonly as indicators of purity of the various isomers. [Pg.70]

Sulfur Dioxide Reductant. The Mathieson process uses sulfur dioxide, sodium chlorate, and sulfuric acid to produce chlorine dioxide gas with a much lower chlorine content. The sulfur dioxide gas reductant is oxidized to make sulfuric acid, reducing the overall acid requirement of the process. Air is used to dilute the chlorine dioxide produced by this process. The exit gases flow through a scmbber to which chlorate is added in order to remove any unreacted sulfur dioxide. Spent Hquor, containing some unreacted chlorate, sulfuric acid, and sodium sulfate, continuously overflows from this process. [Pg.482]

Fillers (calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, aluminum oxide, bentonites, wood flour) increase the solid content of the dispersion. They are added up to 50%, based on PVAc. The purpose of the addition is the reduction of the penetration depth, provision of thixotropic behavior of the adhesive, gap filling properties and the reduction of the costs. Disadvantage can be the increase of the white point and a possible higher tool wear. [Pg.1078]

While the emphasis here has been on the reduction of the amount of waste sludges, it is also equally important to address the problem of regulating the effluents and emissions. In this context, special mention may be made of ammonia which must be carefully regulated. The procedure for processing ammonium fluoride or ammonium sulfate containing solutions begins with lime treatment. The filtrates are fed continuously into a column and stripped with live steam and upgraded. In this way it is possible (with improved equipment and carefully controlled operation) to attain ammonia contents of less than 50 ppm in the effluent. [Pg.782]
