  2. 1. Coordination Chemistry of Monocarboxylate and Aminocarboxylate Complexes at the Water/Goethite Interface

    Author : Katarina Norén; Per Persson; Staffan Sjöberg; Stephan J. Hug; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acetate; benzoate; adsorption; surface complex; ternary surface complexes; ATR-FTIR spectroscopy; EXAFS spectroscopy.; cyclohexanecarboxylate; sarcosine; MIDA; EDDA; EDTA; gallium III ; goethite; mineral surface; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis is a summary of five papers with focus on adsorption processes of various monocarboxylates and aminocarboxylates at the water/goethite interface. Interaction of organic acids at the water/mineral interfaces are of importance in biogeochemical processes, since such processes have potential to alter mobility and bioavailability of the acids and metal ions.

  4. 2. Aqueous surface chemistry of Goethite : adsorption and desorption reactions involving phosphate and carboxylic acids

    Author : Malin Lindegren; Per Persson; Staffan Sjöberg; Alan Stone; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Phosphorus is an essential element for all known forms of life. In the form of phosphate, this nutrient is retained in soils and sediments by sorption on mineral particles, clays and other soil constituents. READ MORE

  5. 3. Phase transformation and surface chemistry of secondary iron minerals formed from acid mine drainage

    Author : Jörgen Jönsson; Lars Lövgren; Per Persson; Staffan Sjöberg; Douglas B Kent; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inorganic chemistry; schwertmannite; goethite; lepidocrocite; acid mine drainage; sulphate; natural organic matter; mineral surface; infrared spectroscopy; EXAFS; XRD; ternary surface complex; copper II ; cadmium II ; lead II ; zinc II ; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : The mining of sulphidic ore to extract metals such as zinc and copper produces huge quantities of waste material. The weathering and oxidation of the waste produces what is commonly known as Acid Mine Drainage (AMD), a dilute sulphuric acid rich in Fe(II) and heavy metals. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modeling of glyphosate and metal-glyphosate speciation in solution and at solution-mineral interfaces

    Author : Caroline Jonsson; Staffan Sjöberg; Per Persson; Bernd Nowack; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; herbicide; glyphosate; surface complexation model; speciation; goethite; aged gamma-alumina; bayerite; manganite; cadmium II ; aluminium III ; potentiometric titration; adsorption; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine, PMG, H3L) is a widely used organophosphorous herbicide. It interacts with metal ions and mineral surfaces, which may affect its mobility, degradation and bioavailability in the environment. However, these interactions are far from fully understood.

  7. 5. Solubility and Surface Complexation Studies of Apatites

    Author : Åsa Bengtsson; Staffan Sjöberg; Per Persson; Lars Lövgren; Laurent Charlet; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; apatite; dissolution; calcium; phosphate; fluoride; goethite; surface complexation; speciation; outer-sphere complexation; FTIR; XPS; potentiometry; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Apatites are a diverse class of phosphate minerals that are important in a great variety of natural and industrial processes. They are, for example, used as raw material in fertiliser production and in the remediation of metal-contaminated soils. READ MORE
