Formation of binary and ternary colloids and dissolved complexes of organic matter, Fe and As.

TL;DR: It is shown that binary and ternary colloids and dissolved complexes of As(V), Fe and organic matter (OM) form at environmentally relevant conditions and these colloids/complexes using ATR-FTIR- and Mossbauer-spectroscopy suggest that As (V) is associated with Fe-OM mainly via ferrihydrite-OM colloids but to a small extent also in dissolved Fe- OM complexes via Fe-bridging.

Abstract: Natural organic matter can change As speciation via redox reactions and complexation influencing its mobility and toxicity Here we show that binary and ternary colloids and dissolved complexes of As(V), Fe and organic matter (OM) form at environmentally relevant conditions and analyzed these colloids/complexes using ATR-FTIR- and Mossbauer-spectroscopy Dissolved Fe-OM complexes and ferrihydrite-OM colloids were formed by reacting OM with ferrihydrite (Fe(OH)(3)) Mossbauer-spectroscopy showed that 95% of the Fe in the Fe-OM fraction were present as ferrihydrite-OM colloids while the remaining 5% were in the dissolved fraction In As(V) plus Fe-OM systems (containing both dissolved and colloidal Fe-OM), 35-8 microg As(V)/mg OC was bound to the Fe-OM complexes/colloids compared to <0015 microg As(V)/mg OC in As-OM systems (without Fe) Upon filtration of As-Fe-OM complexes/colloids with a 3 kDa filter, approximately 6% As was found in the dissolved fraction and approximately 94% As in colloidal Fe-OM This suggests that As(V) is associated with Fe-OM mainly via ferrihydrite-OM colloids but to a small extent also in dissolved Fe-OM complexes via Fe-bridging Since As-contaminated soils and aquifers contain Fe(III) minerals and OM, colloids of As with OM-loaded ferrihydrite and complexes of As with dissolved Fe-OM have to be considered when studying As transport

Digestive solubilization of particle-associated arsenate by deposit-feeders: The roles of proteinaceous and surfactant materials.
Xing Wu,Paul L. Klerks,Zidan Yuan,Xiaochen Zhu,Xu Ma,Guoqing Zhang,Shaofeng Wang,Yongfeng Jia +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the presence of digestive surfactants significantly enhances arsenate availability during deposit feeding, suggesting that competitive adsorption was the mechanism by which the digestive agents mobilized sedimentary arsenate.

The Formation and Stability of HA–Fe/Mn Colloids in Saturated Porous Media
Zheng Jian,Mei Jiang,Qingzhu Li,Weichun Yang +3 more
TL;DR: The formation and stability of HA–Fe/Mn colloids in saturated porous media are influenced by the molar ratios of C to Fe/Mn, redox reactions, and complexation between HA and Fe/Mn oxides.

Enhanced Fe(OH)2-Driven Reductive Dechlorination via Shortened Fe-O Bonds and Colloidal Medium
Huafeng Li,Jia Deng,Qianqian Jia,Liandong Zhu,Li-Zhi Huang +4 more
TL;DR: This study investigates the reductive dechlorination activity of Fe(OH)2, a prevalent intermediate in iron-bearing clay and groundwater, and finds that shortened Fe-O bonds and colloidal medium enhance its activity in degrading carbon tetrachloride.

Reductive dissolution of As-bearing iron oxides: Mediating mechanism of fulvic acid and dissimilated iron reducing bacteria.
Yangzheng Liu,Xin Zhang,Jinli Zheng,Jiang He,Changwei Lü +4 more
TL;DR: Fulvic acid and dissimilated iron-reducing bacteria facilitate reductive dissolution of As-bearing iron oxides, with goethite being more conducive to Fe/As reduction than hematite, and hydroxy groups being primary electron donors.

The Iron Oxides

- 29 Jul 2003
TL;DR: The food-quality iron oxides are primarily distinguished from technical grades by their comparatively low levels of contamination by other metals; this is achieved by the selection and control of the source of the iron or by the extent of chemical purification during the manufacturing process as discussed by the authors.
